Default document recovery

After making changes in a word document, I saved in error.
I want to get back the original document without changes.

You can only do this if you have the create backup option set in Word.

If the document is still open, you can Undo all the changes (using the Undo
list). If you have "Automatically create backup copy" enabled (Tools |
Options | Save), you will find the previous version saved as "Backup of
filename.wbk."
