All of my excel files have been deleted with the new update!!! How do I get these back?

I did an update and now I no longer have access to ANY of my Excel files. They aren't even in the cloud. How do I get these back?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Use a Time Machine Backup:

Did you backup your Mac, recently? If so, then restore your Mac from that. You'd backup you Mac prior to doing so, and then restore your data from the backup you just created, through use of Migration Assistant. If not, then check other resources.
