Windows 8.1 refresh - LOST EVERYTHING!

OK, I am pretty much in shock right now. I got the message from MS saying the 8.1 preview I was running expired on 1/15. I did a refresh, as it explained that personal files and some setting would not be lost. WRONG! I have a new looking computer in front of me. I lost thousands of e-mails. Tens of thousands of songs. Hundreds of downloads. EVERYTHING. I know, I know. Backup. I do back up all my photos and Quickbooks files to an external HD, so those I can restore, but things like my e-mails kill me. I used to do a regular system image back up, but haven't in many months. Yay me. Does anyone know of a location on my drive where I can access old files like my .pst? I can't imagine they were wiped, this was not supposed to me a format, just a refresh.
