Any way to get these back?

Edit: Looks like I backed up my WTF and Interface folders some time ago. It’s something to go on.

That’s the only way. I recommend making backups regularly, or least before and after major patches and every time you change your addons or their settings in a major way. From what I have seen WoW tends to write settings when quitting and if that fails for any reason (wow crashes, force closed eg. alt+f4, no space like in your case etc) you likely end up with empty files or no settings at all. WoW or launcher doesn’t make backups.

I think some addon managers can also make backups so that’s something to consider, or you can configure any backup software you already use (because everyone makes backups, right?) to create backups from WoW settings, too.
