Restore VM from flat and delta .vmdk files

$

Hello VMware community. I use VMware ESXI free 6.5.

Yestarday I unfortunately try to perform VMs backup with one of the free scripts, after some error I decided to reboot ESXI. After this operation all .vmx and machine.vmdk files dissapered.

I have only machine-flat.vmdk and machine-delta.vmdk. As I understand delta file is growing snapshot over flat?  I've successfully recovered .vmdk file from 'flat' (and .vmx after that) with help from this topic, but it is raw system image(without my data). I think that I should merge flat and delta in some way, after that generate new machine.vdmk but I can't find if it is possible and how to do that.

I will be grateful for any help.
