Help recover files from lost.dir

2013s3

Lurker
Okay so my internal memory was filled with videos, so I decided to move half to my sd card. A few days after, the videos I moved disappeared. Also, at the same time, a new folder named "LOST.DIR" was created, and was around 3gb large. Now I'm no tech-genius, but I'm pretty sure the "LOST.DIR" folder contains those videos. Is there ANY chance I can get it back without rooting, because I've heard that it gets super complicated. I've had no experience with rooting. Thanks a ton in advance. :)
 
Where in storage is the Lost.dir folder? In a file explorer on the phone, when you go into Lost and tap on say a video file, does it give the option to play it?
 
The LOST.DIR folder is in the *extSDcard* folder, which basically means it's in the sd card's root directory.. Unfortunately, the LOST.DIR folder just contains files named as random numbers, without any extensions..
