I deleted some steam games before launching Terraria but that's really it, can't I just uninstall it and reinstall?Is there any reason why this might of happened?
I have two save files for two characters but the alt is the only one with the plr.bak.Another question:
Did you have it on the cloud?
If you didn't go to Documents\My Games\Terraria\Players and you should see 2 files with your characters name, one PLR and one PLR.BAK. Delete the PLR file and rename the PLR.BAK to PLR and you may see your character again.
Honestly I empty that thing out daily so if it was in there I'm screwed /:You could try uninstalling and reinstalling, I heard of an issue where the game saves your stuff in the recycle bin for some reason.
Well even if I can't get my main account back hopefully I can find goodies on those, thanks for your help btwTry getting all of your gear back on a free items server; you can find some on Terraria Server List | Terraria Multiplayer Servers

Thank you for this! I just found my world and characters in the recycle bin and never would have thought to look there. Any idea why it does this and how I can prevent it? This isn't the first time it's happened to me in the last month.
No, sorry.
Did you restart the game yet? Are you sure that you put them in the right folder?Well, I might have jumped the gun anyway. The files were there and I moved them back, but I'm still not seeing anything in the game. I don't get it.

I don't have a clue. I even saved them to the cloud this time. Thank you for your help.I think that your character got corrupted. You should be able to get all of your stuff back using an inventory editor or a free items server. Is there any reason why this might've happened?
