Data from the 'Jupyter' user not on Disk snapshot

I created a Deep Learning VM (pytorch-1-13-cu113-notebooks-v20230501-debian-10) and worked on JupyterLab launched from Vertex Workbench, inside the GCP console. The machine appears under the USER-MANAGED NOTEBOOKS section. There are not enough resources on us-west-4b, the zone I used for the underlying VM, so I created a snapshot and started a new Debian VM with a new disk from the snapshot. 

Now, when I SSH into the machine, I can only see my current SSH profile and the default one I had on the old machine, no Jupyter user inside /etc/passwd, no Jupyter file found when I run `find / -name "*.ipynb" `,  also run as superuser. I can see that another Deep Learning VM (original, not made from a snapshot) still has the jupyter user data. How can I recover the jupyter user data from a snapshot? The zone seems to be down for quite a while and I need the notebooks.

More generally, where is the JupyterLab data stored if not on the persistent disk? I searched for it also inside Storage, as some tangent sources suggested for managed instances, but there's nothing over there.

Any suggestions are appreciated,

Thank you!
