Sorry if this has been posted before, but I consider this an emergency as about a days worth of work has been lost. I have windows 7 microsoft works. I was typing in a document when suddenly (without actually closing) the document went blank. Is there any autosave/recovery systems in place for windows 7 works?
That's odd. What were you doing when it disappeared? I haven't used Works but there's no undo feature? Maybe try pasting into another document in case you somehow selected all of the text and cut it? Windows 7 has the ability to store previous versions of files. You can check for those and restore in the properties section of the file. This won't work if system restore/protection is turned off. Barring that there's probably not much to be done. Recovery programs only work if you have a saved file that got corrupted, but unless it gets saved at some point, the document only gets stored in RAM.
i know microsoft word has an autosave feature.. but i'm not sure never heard of that before. get you're documents or search your computer for the file to see if it autosaved it.
I thought you had to actually enable the auto save, which I didn't. I searched and pulled it up. It was blank (minus original questions) from early today.
