Two Things to Try:

Restore from a Time Machine Backup;

Have a TMB that you Made? If so, then restore your Mac from a TMB that contains these items. Important: Start by creating a Time Machine backup of your Mac, so that you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reinstall. Go Here: Back up your Mac with Time Machine - Apple Support
