I'm afraid that your use of non standard terminology is making it hard for me to understand your problem, particularly "i am un check restore point and shutdown my system". Also "everything was gone" could have a multitude of meanings, up to and including that your host drive was wiped - which I assume didn't happen.

If you mean: that you had guest applications open without saving them, that you saved state, and then somehow you lost the saved state, then nothing can be done.

If you mean that you reverted to a previous snapshot (note that snapshots and save states are unrelated features), then again the previously current snapshot will have been lost.

If you mean that you saved a snapshot "live" and then you cut power to the PC, then possibly it simply never had a change to update the .vbox file, which would mean that the VM will not start. Then it's usually just a simple matter of renaming a ".vbox-tmp" file to ".vbox" to fix the problem.

p.s. I can tell that English is not your native language. If you have difficulty expressing yourself clearly in technical English then it may be easier if you use your native language, and let us rely on Google Translate to understand you. Quite often we can recognize common symptoms even after it has been put through a translation engine.
