    Hi Steve,

    Thank you for posting i am here to help you today. Possible reason is sync issue, accidental deletion or moved of files. On your Computer check your Local folders, OneDrive folder and Recycle bin.

    Check your OneDrive Web online

    Open any Web browsers

    go to this link: https://onedrive.live.com/

    log in your account

    Check if the recent file is showing.

    Check also your OneDrive Recycle bin online

    Let me know how this goes. Looking forward to helping you out.  If you need more help please feel free to let me know.

    Best regards,

    Jansher
