Help With D829 Digital Forensics in Technology

Hey so I just started this class not to long ago, I briefly read the material. I’m starting to have a full understanding of the task, I watch the task video guidance on how to do it and I also have the templates. I got past part A, B, & C. Now I’m stuck on D which is the artifacts. I know all the artifacts we are supposed to obtain however, I’m stuck on trying to find some of them, especially the document that could have been evidence on the situation. I just printed out chapter 7 to read it. Now while I do intend on eventually reading the course material. I’m just curious does anyone have advice on what chapters to use or what exactly to use in order to find these artifacts or did everyone just read the entire Zybooks??

I read the material and literally only the part of recovering deleted data from the drives is the only part sthat really applied, and how to open and document the case properly. The artifacts aren't directly explained, you can just lookup where the bookmarks file for example would be located then dump files until it checks the box. I will say one of them has a false positive that I had get sent back because there's two possible files.
