Hello xeccc5z,

Welcome to forums, please use code tags for commands/codes/Inputs which you are using into your posts as per forum rules. Could you please try following.
Code:
if [[ -z $file1 && -z $file2 && -z $file3 ]]
then 
commands
fi

You could go through manual entry for test too.
Quote:
-z STRING
the length of STRING is zero
Thanks,
R. Singh

DESCRIPTION

       The positional parameters shall be shifted. Positional parameter 1 shall be assigned the value of parameter (1+n),  parameter  2  shall	be
       assigned  the  value of parameter (2+n), and so on. The parameters represented by the numbers "$#" down to "$#-n+1" shall be unset, and the
       parameter '#' is updated to reflect the new number of positional parameters.

       The value n shall be an unsigned decimal integer less than or equal to the value of the special parameter '#'.  If n is not given, it shall
       be assumed to be 1. If n is 0, the positional and special parameters are not changed.

EXIT STATUS

       If  the	n  operand  is invalid or is greater than "$#", this may be considered a syntax error and a non-interactive shell may exit; if the
       shell does not exit in this case, a non-zero exit status shall be returned. Otherwise, zero shall be returned.

CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS
