While trying to complete the capstone project, I made a mistake in the code and overwrote one of the tables, losing the data. I then tried to delete the workspace in attempts to reset the workspace to be its initial state, but this only managed to empty all files and data in the workspace.

I was wondering if there is anything I can do to reset/recover the workspace to the initial state or if this must be done by admin?

Thank you so much!
