Inserting Missing Data into Adventure Works 2014

In summary, the person is having trouble with their downloaded copy of the AdventureWorks2014 database as it is missing data. They have not deleted or truncated any data, so it may be an issue with their SQL Server. They are wondering if there is a way to insert the missing data without having to re-download and restore the entire database. A suggestion is to check if the data is still in the database and if so, try running a script to insert the missing data. Otherwise, they may need to re-download and restore the database again.

Hi All,
Somehow the copy of AdventureWorks2014 I downloaded ( saved and restored) is missing the data,
i.e., it contains the schema : tables, indexes, etc. , but many tables are missing the actual data. I have
not done any delete/truncate/drop operations, so this may have been a problem with my SQL Server.
Short of dropping the whole database and restoring it, is there a way of inserting the missing data?
Thanks.

Have you tried running a query to check if the data is still in the database? If it is, then you could try running a script to insert the missing data. Otherwise, you may need to re-download and restore the AdventureWorks2014 database again.
