How to audit the file system (protect against the disappearance of files)?

Question

Data recovery

Hello.
Recently I have been organizing a number of media files, renaming folders, sorting and so on.
After a couple of days, I noticed that the 11.5GB folder had disappeared. Of course there are backups, but it's unpleasant enough.
Launched R-studio, they didn't find any file from that folder. х_х (or I don't know how to use it)
Windows checker says that the disk is normal.
Question: is there a file monitor hanging in the tray that checks if any files fall off?
I want to trace this mystery..

1. In terms of logging / logging - system audit tools: Windows Security Audit Policy and Linux Auditing System.
2. Any software from the File Integrity Monitoring category (tripwire, etc.)
3. FileSystemWatcher in powershell - by type: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter...
