I made a bunch of projects but I let my subscription lapse. Is there anyway I can get my old projects back? It was a lot of work. I exported them as 3MF but thats no help. Is there a way to go back and get them?

In the future, make sure you export them as .shapr. That will maintain then entire design, including the history.
