File Disappeared
Hi,
I had a file on my desktop named as Expenses.docx - When I left office on saturday evening, the file was there but today when I came to office and started my PC, that file wasn't there. I tried the system restore, it showed the previous data but that particular file wasn't there. I have tried another recovery software which shows a shortcut to that file but the original file isn't availabe. How has it disappeared? I checked the recent history on Word, I clicked on open file but it said c:...desktop...Expenses.docx not found How can I recover that file? Please Help! |

Have you tried searching for the file in Windows, in case it was just moved
to a different location? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Hasan" wrote: Hi, I had a file on my desktop named as Expenses.docx - When I left office on saturday evening, the file was there but today when I came to office and started my PC, that file wasn't there.

Note that, if you are on a network, you may not be allowed to save to
the desktop; the file may have been deleted during login. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Hasan" wrote in message ... I have tried that a lot of times but it is just not there.

If it is a multi-user PC, there should be a desktop folder for each user
under C:\Documents and Settings. You will not be able to access that folder unless you log in as that user or you have sufficient access rights. If this is not the case then the file is presumably lost. The desktop is not the best place to save files. Use your documents folder or a sub folder from it to save your work. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Hasan wrote: I am not on a network.
