TWRP encrypted sdcard but I didn't have encryption on

[Alonzzo2]

What I did:
Wiped all but data
Flashed latest OOS
Rebooted and lost TWRP
Booted to fastboot and booted from TWRP
Flashed TWRP
Rebooted to TWRP
Now all the data is encrypted (gibberish names)

How can it be?
What can I do now? from what I read I just lost all of my data... How do I proceed?

Now I'm attempting to sideload the official ROM... maybe after flashing the ROM, OOS will be able to read the files (I never activated any encryption on my device)

How I install OOS.

Boot twrp
Flash OOS 10.3.6
Flash TWRP installer zip
Flash finalize
Format data
Reboot system.

On AB partition devices which is everything made now recovery and boot image are in same place so you must always install twrp installer zip when you flash a rom to have twrp otherwise it gets taken away. Formatting data when doing a clean installation at the end before you reboot system will allow you to then see your sdcard files afterwards..
