lost file - where is application data?
Help! I can't find a Word file I was working on. I have tried looking in
recent documents, sorting by name, sorting by date, etc. I checked and I have autorecover on and then I looked at file locations under tools/options and it shows a long string of filenames, one of which is application data. I can't find application data anywhere. Is it hidden somehow? |

A couple of things to note:
1) If you exit without saving, then Word does not keep your data for autorecover 2) When prompted to save, you really should select a place and name that will allow you to locate your file 3) Application Data is a hidden folder (by default) - it is inside your profile directory (ie, a level above My Docs) On Apr 22, 11:47 pm, rangertix wrote: Help!
