if you didn't have a backup, I'm afraid you have to try some Android data recovery tools to scan your deleted files, but make sure these deleted files were not overwritten by new data.

You need to ask support also you will need to submit the file as a false +ve to get it whitelisted. Support can assist you in this and point to the steps required

A name for the detection and for the software you are trying to install would help.

Contact the software maker and tell them to get their own files cleared by McAfee as per the bold blue line halfway down this:

Generally speaking, the deleted data were still saved on your phone, you can use an android recovery app to detect them and get them back on computer before they were covered by new data.

Whenever you face any kind of data loss situation, I would simply recommend you to use Android data recovery tool when you don't have any backup files. But before that, you should check your backup if you have ever created and if not then go for the recovery program.
