Default autocorrect enteries lost

I lost all of my autocorrect enteries due to fluctuation, which caused my
system to shut. I need help recovering those as they were too many and I
can't possibly re-enter each and everyone of them

AutoCorrect entries are stored in .acl files. They are saved by language and
are unavailable if the language at the insertion point is different. If you
have a backup, see

Default autocorrect enteries lost

Hi ?B?R2FyeQ==?=,

I lost all of my autocorrect enteries due to fluctuation, which caused my
system to shut. I need help recovering those as they were too many and I
can't possibly re-enter each and everyone of them

This article describes where AutoCorrect entries are stored. Look for the
*.acl file and Normal.dot. Be sure to search HIDDEN files, as well.
