Exclamation Word Document closes, all content disappears, no idea why, HELP

For the last couple weeks I have been having a problem with my word. I will be typing and I will mistype something (I don't know what, I type somewhat fast and have not been able to figure out what actually triggers it) and the entire document closes. When I reopen the document, all the content is gone. This has happened with documents that have file names and also with one that had content previously saved in it. I checked autorecovery, and there is no copy of the document saved in there. I have no idea what I am pressing to make this happen but I have lost class notes mid-class twice now and a long document of presentation notes that really screwed me so I really need to figure it out! I have tried undo in the document, but since I reopened it, there is no action to undo. I have also tried pressing random key combinations to try and replicate the response but to no avail. I have tried ctrl+F4, which prompts my to save the document before closing, as well as ctrl=W, which does the same thing. I have also initiated automatic back ups of my documents, but the backup ends up blank as well. I assume that there is some command I am mistakenly pressing and that if I remove the command, I won't have to worry about pressing it accidentally. However I have no idea what command would both CLOSE windows and DELETE all the data in it. Does anyone know what this command might be and how I might fix it? I really can't have this happen when I'm writing thesis notes or chapters so I need to get it fixed ASAP. Thank you!
