Connected to laptop and all data disapperead - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
Connected my nexus 5 to my laptop to transfer some files and it gave me an error some 000000x (something like that) and then what I see is there is nothing on my phone. The folders are there but no data. And then simultaneously I tried opening it on ES File Explorer on my phone and it didn't even showed the folders.
I restarted my phone but it was no good. Wiped data of media storage and wiped cache from recovery. But no result . I just need that data.
PLEASE HELP.
Really Appreciate.

Recovering lost files

Hi guys,
I used the app "Hide It Pro" and hid about 800 files.
After trying to unhide them again, the app crashed and only about 140 files were restored.
As the Nexus can't be mounted as a mass storage device on PC, I can't use recovery software there.
I tried two recovery apps for android which found nothing.
Is there still anything I can try?
Edit:
Got everything back! The gallery just shows the 140 files, connected to the pc there is only 1 file visible, but using a file explorer on the phone actually shows that all of them are there.

DELETED storage/emulated/0 accidently

DEVICE - NEXUS 5 (un-rooted)
PROBLEM - DELETED storage/emulated/0 accidently
I connected my phone using usb to computer, phone connected as a device and nexus5 icon was created with other directories, I clicked nexus5 icon and then clicked internal storage folder which has all the folders made on phone like music, downloads, android etc. As I was cleaning my phone of redundant folders and files created by apps. I came across folder naaed storage, it has another folder emulated which in turn had file named 0. I thought of it as a file created by some app so deleted (Shift + delete) it. All the images of my phone i.e DCIM, whatsapp, screenshots etc got deleted and phone memory got free. Now my Google Music app can't read my songs present on my phone. I just re-booted (restart) my phone and nothing is resolved.
Now, I connected my phone to compugter via usb, nexus5 icon is shown but when I click it "folder is empty" message is shown.
Please help to get files back and resolve whatever issues (i.e Google Music unable to read songs present on phone) have occured because of deleting that file

Those files are gone man, u might have been able to save them prior to rebooting the device but they are gone now and your going to need to flash the factory image in order to fix your file system, devices have a certain structure of creating file systems, that's why they tell ppl not to delete anything if your not absolutely sure u know what your doing, so like I said, those files are gone, u may be able to get your pictures back if they were backed up using Google photos, but u still need to flash the factory image to fix your file system

Can't see some folders and files from the computer

I'm trying to backup my phone to flash a stock LP (to try to fix some problems with the battery) but I'm having this strange problem.
When I connect my phone to the pc I can see most of the folders, but not all of them, and a lot of files doesn't seem to be there.
On the phone, with Explorer, I can see everything so I don't understand what could be the issue.
I'd be very grateful if someone could help me
Nevermind, i solved the issue clearing the data of the Media Storage app

All data lost after I deleting some files via computer (USB)

when I delete some files in my Nexus 5 via computer
i unplug the phone from the computer
I find all the data in phone disappears and get a lot of free storage:crying:
what should i do now?
thank you so much
I guess you have deleted too much files... There's nothing you can do if you don't have backups.
Unfortunately, tools like Recuva don't help a lot.
thank you for reply
I don't delete all the data but all the data lose
could some one tells me which step cause this problem?
thx

Phone won't boot, backing up data doesn't work, how to save the data stored on internal storage

Hi there, even if i have this issue on a specific phone (Redmi note 7 on PE), I think this issue can be encoutered in any phone, so I ask here.
(excuse my english, it's not my native langage).
Suddenly my phone freezes and turns off. I try to reboot but it stays stuck on the G logo. I've waited for an hour, it doesn't boot. I try to save as many data as I can, beggining with my sd card. But I have some data stored on my internal storage (pictures, recording and my podcast log) that is encrypted.
My plan was to back up all I could, reset the phone and restore what I've saved. but each time i try to back up (Orange recovery fox project), it crashes at the data back up. On the log it says that it is a file stored on data/misc that causes the issue. Thinking its a corrupt one, i delete and try again. But it crashes again, because of another file on the same data/misc file. I've tried two times to delete those files whitout any success.
I'm kind of desperate here, what can i do to save those precious files?
Any help appreciated, have a nice day
