Unsaved document

[cbolvic]

Help anyone,

I have worked on a document for over an hour, instead of saving it I
accidently closed the word application. Is there any chance the word might
have saved a copy anywhere on my computer. If so where and what should I look
for.

Thanks in advance,

Andre

No. If you closed it without saving, despite Word's asking you whether
that's what you really wanted to do, then there is no vestige of it.

Almost negligible if it was closed normally. Word will have created a few
temp files that would have cleared when you closed Word and as the document
was never saved to disk, it won't be on the disk anywhere.

No.
Computers always do what you ask them to do (and with great speed and
precision), which is almost never what you want them to do.
