Teacher Bricked Every Student's PC

What thee fuck do i d now. Basically my computer science teacher for my computer engineering classes was talking abt viruses malware, yk the usual and how to stay safe. Then he wanted to demonstrate the damage malware can do, so he had launched up VM (aka a virtual machine, like a sandbox) then he unleased a virus he made. It ended up bricking his pc and it spread to all the students in the class, including me. So im sorta fucked rn cuz i had a lot of important school and job application stuff on there, maybe this is the wrong sub but i just need help man.

A Reddit post describes a computer science teacher demonstrating malware inside a virtual machine, only for the virus to brick his own PC and spread to every student’s computer. The poster is panicking because important school and job application files may be lost, making the story an absurd cautionary tale about a failed safety demonstration. It is used as a reaction to situations where an attempt to prevent disaster causes the exact disaster instead.
