Accidentally deleted iPhone backup from PC.

So I tried backing up my iPhone 8 to my pc from iTunes and I ended up backing it up like around 3 times. Then I put my phone on recovery mode and restored it. When I tried restoring the backup to the phone, it said "iTunes could not backup the iphone because an error occurred while reading from or writing to the iphone." and I searched up a solution on YouTube and it said to delete the extra backup files. I accidentally deleted the backup file that I needed and know I don't know what to do. Is there any way the backup file could get recovered?


iPhone 8, iOS 14

That's unlikely, unless it's still on your computer (in the trash) or you backup your computer.
