I do not think you can do smth to restore it. About this virus have been a
lot of talks, you had to take some actions before 3 february.
Try looking here, maybe there is some imformation and/or what to do if you
were infected

Are you sure the applications are working normally? Sometimes whenever
you have an attack, the application files are damaged/corrupted
resulting in malfunction of them.

Assuming the applications are all OK then I am afraid there is nothing
you can do. However, you could try this article for excel files:

The virus OVERWRITES the file. After you remove the virus you restore
the data files from the backup copies.
