My wife is working on a project and lost several hours of work. Don't =
know=20
exactly what happened, but here's what I know, based on what she told =
me...
---She's been working on it for weeks.
---When she started Sunday morning it was 14 pages long.
---After working on/off throughout the day it was 22 pages long.
---She regularly saves her work. She won't even minimize it without =
saving.
---Late Sunday night she opened it and it was exactly as it was when =
she=20
started that morning. Everything she did that day is gone.
---There was no crash, so no autorecovery.
I searched all drives for PowerPoint files and could not find any =
other than=20
the 14-page version. Also searched for templates and webfiles to see =
if she=20
accidentally saved as one of those, but no luck. When she saves she =
simply=20
hits the save button. AutoSave is set for every 10 minutes but can't =
find=20
any files.
Any help greatly appreciated.
