Files missing from "Documents" folder

Hello all,

I recently checked my "Documents" folder on my Desktop. It used to house hundreds of documents and files and these files all appear to be missing. There is one folder left within the "Documents" folder but even that does not contain much of anything. It does not appear my computer is compromised in any other way. Unfortunately, I have no been using Time Machine and these files were on iCloud, but I cannot locate them anywhere. I tried turning off the sharing with iCloud feature through system preferences but this did not work. I tried using Stellar Data Recovery to find these missing files, and it did find many of them, but many still remain lost. I am running macOS Catalina 10.15.17. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
