Hey,
I know you guys get this a lot, but I'm curious in terms of learning about recovery methods. I recently saved a file, had some resource problems on my computer, and it crashed. When I opened it up again it read in "####". I've tried un/zipping, reinstalling, and checking the corresponding backup files (empty). When it crashed, I made the mistake of reinstalling before I checked the backup folder, which I assume wiped the temp files (due to me reading one thread before the primary).
Anywho, the document is fairly small and it's just for a class of mine. I don't mind retyping it, but I figured I would post here for suggestions on possible last steps. I'm fairly clueless with regards to how, in other threads, individuals have recovered partial documents with software.
Thanks!
