Sorry to hear of this misfortune. You could try copy pasting the folders to a new folder and selecting that as a workspace. You can also try exporting and importing them.
However, if for whatever reason the files on disk were corrupted, you would need to find backups, e.g. if you deployed workflows to the community hub or a company server.
@nxfxcom could you give us and more informations? Is it possible that the workflows are on a MS OneDrive which might have some limitations with regrads towards special characters which KNIME needs (Restore Knime workflows - #6 by mlauber71).
