If all of your icons have disappeared on your Mac chances are you simply moved to another desktop or workspace. Click on "Mission Control" or search if your dock is missing as well, here you should be able to see the desktop with the icons. Hope this helps!

What worked for me on my Mac was just to go to Finder and open it. It solved the problem right there. Everything was available again.

Go under the Apple in the upper left hand corner to Dock. Turn off hiding.

"Hi,

Follow the below steps to get back your desktop lost data.

Finder > iCloud Drive (Archive) > Desktop > Copy the data and paste it your Mac Desktop.

It worked for me.

Thanks!"
