I deleted the whole virtual machine, but I have pictures of this machine. Can I restore the virtual machine from the pictures? And i have the first state of the machine in the format ova. I forgot to do the import of the last state before deleting.

"Pictures"? I assume that's a translation of "Snapshots", except that the translation seems too good elsewhere.

Anyway, you should be able to recover the original VM state by importing the OVA. The base VM is not useful for anything until it has been unpacked (imported).

No promises, but you may be able to place all of the snapshot files plus the base VMDK in a single folder, then clone the most recent snapshot using CloneVDI. If it works then it produces a flat VDI file which you can build a new VM around. If CloneVDI refuses to work... well in that case you'll better understand why nobody around here recommends the use of snapshots.
