Default "Temporary" files that show up on the left of page

Due to a crazy trackpad / mouse glitch, or maybe it was a virus, Word closed when I did not want it to. Before it closes it always asks me if yes/no do I want to discard the temporary files that show up on the left side of an open document. I don't know what these are called. But like if you create a document and don't save it, it will be in that list of files as Document1, Document2, etc.

During this malfunction, it was like my mouse was being controlled by somebody else! I don't know if it was a virus or just a crazy mouse malfunction but it clicked yes/no, whatever it is that discards those files! I did NOT want it to do that. I always answer the yes/no so that it will leave them alone and then I can check them out later to rename the files or discard them.

How can I view those files again? I opened Word and that space is empty, the files are not showing, there is no list. I am not going to do anything until I, hopefully, find a solution from you guys.
