Undelete documents
Recommended solution: Data Recovery
It's your worst nightmare. The document that you've been working on all night is gone. Somehow, it's been permanently deleted - the recycle bin was emptied, you overwrote it, or it's just simply gone missing. Did you know that it's almost always possible to get it back? You need a special tool, though - and we have the solution.
Searching for your file
If you can't find your saved work, there's a chance it hasn't actually been deleted. It could have been moved; make sure you look in the Recycle Bin, and that you try using the Windows Search tool (found in the Start Menu) to locate it. If you can't find your lost file and you're using Microsoft Word, try opening Word again - there's a chance that its Auto-Recovery system saved your work for you.
Still can't find your document?
If you still can't find your file, and you've searched in all the places you can think of, it may be time to assume that your file has been deleted. But it's not gone for good! When your computer "deletes" a file, all it's actually doing is removing the reference to the file in your computer's system. The document, including recent saved changes are still present on your hard drive until another program needs the space.
