HELLO,  
I used elasticsearch + kibana for a 30 day trial on mars so LICENSE [EXPIRED] ON [WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 2022]. so i reinstalled another elasticsearch+kibana and i start using normally. yesterday i created new index and dashboards.... so it works normally today when i run elasticsearch+kibana it gives me LICENSE [EXPIRED] ON [WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 2022] and I can't find any data from my last month but what happened ?!! I worked with it normal yesterday !!  
I tried to install elasticsearch and kibana in another folder and when I started gives me the same problem.

Any help would be sincerely appreciate!

An expiring license will not cause any data to disappear.  
We would need to better understand how you installed Elasticsearch and how you are running it.
