Word document letters turned into blocks

[Nkosikho]

Hi

I finished typing my 16 page essay in word and I did save both in my H drive
and memory stick. My problem is when I reopened my esssay, the letters have
turned into blocks like "⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪⨪." I dont know what I pressed that
might have caused this. I need any help to convert the blocks back to actuall
letters that I typed before.

Any help please?

Thanks
