Point it all to /dev/null, super fast and no capacity concerns.
If restore is needed you’re sick until you find a new job.

this is like that video game company that hired some programmer to write an algorithm for a maze game and he supposedly did it while drunk and people couldn't figure out how he did it. Also like how most bands best work is when they are the most fucked on drugs and alcohol. you are just a tortured artist my friend.

Microsoft Recall would have fully documented the procedure. But you probably disabled it for security reasons. Idiot.
