Opening .tmp files (File Conversion)

[Graham Mayor]

tmp files are not necessarily copies of the documents they belong to. If
Word crashed and you don't have save autorecovery information active (or it
hasn't saved the autorecovery information) and you have not been regularly
saving the document and have no backups, then you are out of luck. To avoid
this problem in the future see

Hi, I have a .tmp file that I am trying to open (I lost my original work when
WORD crashed). When I try to open it, WORD prompts me with a File Conversion
window and it just looks like gibberish. Is there a way to view .tmp files
or decode them?

Thanks,
PML
