So, I have tried:
renaming the file
zipping the file
checking the backup
checking the temporary files
deleting my user profile
deleting the locked icon on my desktop
restoring the document to a previous version (there were none)
I am an avid saver. When I saw he jumped up there, I hit ctrl-S quick, knowing he has the tendency to shut off my computer. I have NEVER had this issue with Microsoft Word, wordpad or notebook, so I didn't even know something like this could even happen. How can I completely lose a file that I saved??



From now on I am going to save to a thumb drive as well obviously. Of course, if I had know this was possible, I would have done this in the beginning! Someone, anyone, please tell me there is SOMETHING I can do. I just can't accept the fact that I have to start all over.
