Nick,

LibreOffice would not have deleted any document, spreadsheet, etc files
that you created. There aren't even options on the menus to perform those
actions. Same for the LibreOffice installer, if a new version was recently
installed.

I have read recently of some Microsoft Windows updates causing loss of data.

My guess would be one of the following caused file deletion:
- a faulty Windows update
- someone inadvertently or purposefully deleting files

If you have backups my recommendation is restore from backup.
If no backup and you're using Windows
* check the Trash to see if the files are there. If found recover from Trash
* try a file recovery tool, i.e. Windows File Recovery,

from Microsoft. Other tools from other vendors are available
