When trying to copy document from home computer to USB - I answered yes when
prompted "do you want to overwrite the existing file?" Unfinished document
on USB was copied to home computer. Thought I was copying finished to USB.
Now both documents (home computer and USB) are unfinished. Is the work
totally lost or can I retrieve it (as it was originally saved to home
computer.
Microsoft Windows Professional XP

Not without a backup, or professional harddrive recovery (expensive, and
chanches of success getting slimmer the longer you're computer has been
used in the meantime).
