I opened a paper I have been working on from my email. Finished it up and just hit save along the way (not save as). At the end I hit save one more time and exited. Only to realize I have no clue where the file is. Tried searching for the file name and checking in temp files. Much to my dismay I have had no luck. Looks like I just lost a few pages and will have to write it over.

yeah i think its lost now

4/14/2008 10:30:31 PM

so did you open it in word?

4/14/2008 10:31:16 PM

temporary internet files....it should be there....somewhere

4/14/2008 10:31:28 PM

it is even still listed if I open word back up. but clicking just results in an invalid path.

lol

how about searching for files by date modified

4/14/2008 10:37:44 PM

So we backtracked a tad !

4/14/2008 10:44:38 PM

it's still in the temp somewhere

open it back up. i've seen attachments open with (2) at the end, meaning there was another of the same filename in the same direcdtory. from there you maybe can find it

also

SHIT! I thought this thread was about The Judge

Can't you just start another file, do "save as", and see where it is saving by default?

4/14/2008 10:47:41 PM

START, then RECENT ITEMS.

/done

uhhh unless you have a mac, in which case i wouldnt be able to open it if it were on the desktop

4/14/2008 10:47:48 PM
