Recover files (changes) after "undoing pending changes" in visual studio 2015

I had about 20 files pending changes in my solution in Visual Studio 2015,I had a problem with repository so clicked on "Undo pending changes" thought I had already had shelved my changes. After undoing pending changes I noticed that I hadn't created any shelveset of those change.

I googled a bit about it and I found this link How can I get my changes back after clicking “Undo pending changes…” in Visual Studio 2013 and TFS

I tried the solution mentioned in answers of link above but there is no TFSTemp folder in my AppData\Local\Temp folder do notice that I'm using Visual Studio 2015 but the user asked this question is using Visual Studio 2013. Maybe vs 2015 store TFSTemp in different location but where ???

Any Idea about how I can get my changes back???

Any help would be greatly appreciated

The TFS Temp folder should be the same path "AppData\Local\Temp\TFSTemp". It's not related to VS version. If you could not find it in your own account, give a try with Admin account (If the VS run in Admin mode)

enter image description here You should be checking in frequently or setup some sort of backup system to avoid mistakes like this. If the files are gone from your file system, they're gone. Maybe a file recovery utility could do the trick, but the solution is too complicated. Besides past that, there's no way to get them back.
