Lost desktop documents
When I update MacOS Big Sur 11.6, ALL my Excel, PDF, Word files were deleted. How can I retrieve them? They are not in MY Finder.

Have you checked in Sidebar under Documents ??
Has Documents and Desktop be accidentally Enable in iCloud ??
Worst case - use the Time Machine Backup performed Before the latest update to Big Sur to restore the missing documents.
