Accidentally deleted package.json, is there anyway for you to regenerate it?

Question

I had a JSON error in my package and by accident deleted it. Is there any way to get it back?

Git? Your IDE local cache? Your trash? `npm init` and start from scratch? — Emile Bergeron, Jul 26 '19 at 15:27
was it create-react-app? if yest then just generate one more blank project and take package.json. At least this will solve half of problem then you can install other stuff? — Indrajeet Latthe, Jul 26 '19 at 15:37
thanks Indrajeet, this was a really stupid question sorry guys I'm such a noob at this — Dan Nugent, Jul 26 '19 at 15:44

Well, if you are not using git or similar systems the last thing you can do is to use software like Recuva to restore a deleted file.
