How to recover a saved file was 'open' e-mail

Hello

My problem is the following.

I "opened" an attachment (word docx.) my email.
I worked on it for days, and I pressed 'save the icon' like a million times throughout the day.
What is strange, when I restart my computer, it was virtually impossible for me to find the same file I was working on.
The document is really important to me, is anyway to recover the document? I tried to find the temporary folder (although I have recovered the photos I've come, but not documents in the temporary folder), are there other hidden folders where it should be saved to? Help, please.

I use Vista.
Thank you for your help, and I hope to hear from you soon.

Teresa

You can also open Microsoft Word and look at the recently used files. It should be listed in there.
You can check under user\Documents it is usually the default folder that word saves when you n specify a location to be saved.
If is not the default location, type word a test document open and press on save, then go to save as and see where is the default save location.

Thanks, Martin

  • How to recover the original file names?

    Hello! Please help me.


    Accidentally, I changed the names of the videos that I used for Adobe Premiere. So now, every time I open the folder Adobe Premiere, videos are missing and replaced with a red screen "media disconnected". Is there any way I can recover the original file names without having to do it manually one by one?


    I tried to go back to a restore point, but it does not work. I can't locate too because I don't remember which video is which.


    I already edited almost 50 videos in this project it would take me a loooot of time to start all over again. :((


    Hope you can help me.

    If I understand you correctly, you changed the name of the file in Windows and can't remember what used to be file names. You have modified these in Premiere Pro, and now the project files, that you created do not know where to find the video files.

    Is this correct?

    If so, I may have a simple solution for you.

    Assuming that you're not maxing out every file so that they are all exactly the same length, the number of minutes and seconds and images should get you where you want to go. Almost as unique as a fingerprint on my PC, but I never capture a bunch of videos which are identical in time - although it is possible to do, I guess.

    Open a project file. Checking the properties of each file should reveal the name of file theoriginal and duration, which is also available directly on the thumbnail image (see image below).  Open the media browser, then look at the times on each clip. This should be enough to help you either republish or change the Windows name to what it was originally. It's always one at a time, but it shouldn't take too long. A pen and paper could help 50 videos.

  • How to recover programs and files that have been written too by a full system restore?

    Original title: data recovery

    Is there a program that will allow me to recover programs and files that have been written too by a full system restore?  I had to do a complete system restore, because the computer has been locked up in a start of the closed loop cycle.

    Hi Apmech9,

    1. don't you restore the computer to factory settings?
    2. do you just restore the computer to an earlier time by using the system restore feature in Windows XP?

    If you restore the computer to its factory settings, you will then get in touch with the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

    If you had just restored the computer to an earlier time using System Restore, you can undo the system restore to revert back the changes.
    See the article "How to undo a restoration of the system after performing a system restore" in this article of the

  • How to recover permanently deleted files

    could someone please help to recover files deleted in windows 8. is not in the Recycle bin and the history file was off.
    Is it possible to recover these files.

    Thank you

    "Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
    also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
    sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
    the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
    the unrecoverable file.

    So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
    Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
    downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
    example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
    be very poor now.

    But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
    using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
    already. Download an undelete program (here, it's a good thing):
    http://www.Piriform.com/Recuva but there are many others choose
    of; Do a search) on a friend's computer (do not on yours since)
    which may overwrite the files you want to restore) and bring it to
    your on a CD or thumb drive to try.

    If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
    a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
    expensive and may or may not work in your case.

  • How to recover my .muse file?

    I built a site developed for a client, the site was transferred to the customers godaddy hosting server. The hard drive that this site is registered on a damaged and I have been unable to recover all the files. During the "Upload to FTP Host', is the original .muse file downloaded as well or just the .html files? The customer is willing to do some updates and I need to understand that as soon as possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to reconstruct a source .muse file HTML files published. You can always retrieve the published HTML files and use any HTML editor to make changes to the same.

    If you published using the latest version of Muse and chose file > download FTP host option to download the content of the site on your host, you will also be able to use the browser to edition to change the content of the site online at http://inbrowserediting.adobe.com

  • How can I get the files to open with layer automatically the Background value - no layer 1?

    I open a lot of Illustrator EPS and PDF in Photoshop - I need to convert to TIFF.

    By default, they open with the layer on Layer 1. So I always have to change that to melt before the Save in tiff format.

    I know that its just an extra step, but when I think of the thousands of files I opened over the years which represents several hours of my life.

    Does anyone know a way to stop what is happening so that files open by default in the background?

    I know that I can create an Action - but its still an extra click so it won't save me any time.

    Also, I realize account opening in 1 layer retains transparency - I need from time to time. In an ideal world, I would have a setting in preferences to open in the background by default. Then in the import box that appears when I open a file, I would have a checkbox that says something like: "Allow the transparency" so that I could open in 1 layer on the rare occasions I need.

    Any ideas / opinions anyone?

    I would just do an action to flatten the image, then set it to a shortcut key.  I have this on my computer - just press F4 (my shortcut key) and it is flattened.
