Hi vivekrishna

If persistent disk VMDK is not present in actual datastore, you can not retrieve it unless you have a backup of persistent disks. You can import the backup and then in horizon view you can recreate VM using persistent disk itself.

Please check : Restore a Linked Clone by Importing a Persistent Disk from vSphere

Horizon view might be showing the corresponding entry in View admin page because it might have an entry in AD LDS database.
