I gave up to recovery them. No idea why but it does show only old
versions of the file instead of the most recent. And they are
small blocks which aren't more than 20% of the file starting from
line 1. I can't find any part of these 80% in nowhere (I read and
compared all results).
I got in touch to Mono for D's author and there is no such an
auto backup on Mono/Xamarim. He recommended another undelete tool
which didn't worked for me too. This time I'll do more than one
backup and active the windows' native one.
Big thanks for everyone which tried to help me.
I'm already reinstalling XS (btw, I asked for windows for desktop
version and now I'm installing all platforms supported by xamarim
stuido which I'm not going to develop to).
