All I can suggest is that you use the computer's search facility to search for the name (or partial name) of one of the files.
A quick search threw up this thread which offered a fix

I don't use Windows 7, so know nothing about this.

/Files /Recent Documents is only a list pf shortcuts to your files. They should still be on your hard disk in whatever directory you originally saved them in. Such directory is usually pointed to by /Tools /Options OpenOffice : Paths, My Documents.

When you say "deleted all my files from 3.4", do you mean that they don't show in /File /Recent Documents?
