Computer crashed and Then Workbook has lots of missing information

I have a workbook with multiple sheets that I have constantly saved, as I have been working on it for a week. 

My computer crashed and after reopening the workbook it has missing sheets and the sheet that has stayed has formatting missing. 

I have tried the following: 

Seeing if I have sheets hidden 

Re-downloading previous versions from google drive (still has sheets missing) 

 

Please help me recover the missing information, as I've been working towards a deadline. 

Kind Rregards

    Hi!

    Similar problem. Over 6 days working on an XLSX file. Not knowing that CSV files only save one sheet at a time. Then suddenly the XLSX file is missing from 1) hard drive 2) OneDrive. The XLSX file appears in "Recent Files" but refuses to open ("file not found" or something).

    ANY suggestion would be welcome!

    Thanks

    ~D
