I just got in a HUGE mess when trying to launch GMS2. I think I forgot to save last time, but at the same time, it seems to have saved since all the assets were in their respective folders. I tried to open the program today and it seems a lot of assets have disappeared and "cannot be found", when they clearly were there already. So I tried to get them away and back in, but when I ran the program again it didn't let me enter, assuming that I have bad internet connection, which is not the case. Seems like it got broken, what should I do now?

What is source control? And if by backup you mean some assets that Game Maker Studio 2 wont find nor run for some reason... Yea.
I don't really know what happened. Still, thanks a lot, it means a lot for me.

It stores your files on a git server, allowing you to retrieve your project if there is a problem. I suggest you look into it to avoid such issues in the future - https://help.yoyogames.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008803978-Setting-Up-And-Using-Source-Control
It won't fix the faulty GMS2 issue you are having, but you would be able to get your project back once you sorted that out.
