You cannot see the Files tab
Files is on every channel; on a narrow window its name is hidden or the tabs collapse into a menu, and an empty channel reads No files yet.

Files is present on every channel and every direct message. There is no setting, permission, or role that removes it, so if it looks absent one of the four causes below applies.
The tab strip shows icons with no words
On a window narrower than roughly 1536 pixels the four tabs keep their icons and drop their names. Files is the folder icon, fourth from the left after Messages, Pins, and Threads. Point at it to confirm the name.
The tab strip is a single menu
On a phone-width window the four tabs collapse into one control that shows only the tab you are on. Open it and choose Files.
You can also go straight there: add ?view=files to the channel address.
No files yet
The tab is open and working. The channel has never taken a file, so there is nothing to list. Share one and it appears; see Share a file in a channel.
A file you remember sending can be missing from the list on purpose. A file is left out while its scan has not cleared, if its scan blocked it, if its access window expired, or if the message it came from is no longer readable.
Files could not be loaded.
The list failed to load. Choose Retry. If it keeps failing, check whether the channel itself still opens; a channel you have lost access to cannot list files either. See You cannot see a Space.
