Folders and files disappeared from desktop

Yesterday I worked until morning and went to sleep. When I opened my MacBook today, all my files on the desktop were deleted. Only an unimportant file with the extension .pages called untitled.pages was not deleted. M2 MacBook Pro, 16 GB, 1 TB, Sequoia 15.2

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 15.2
