finding a file

[Guest]

Hello,

I've been working on a paper which I had e-mailed to myself as an
attachment. Accidentally, I saved it instead of "save as" and now I have
lost it. Does anyone know how I can retrieve it? I've searched through all
of my folders.

Thanks, Molly

Have you tried doing a search for it - Start, Search, All files and folders,
typing the name of the file.

Thank you for the help. I've tried all types of searches. I think it is in
the content.IES folder, but it is coming up coded. I think it is gone...

Hi Lost File,

Try this file recover to retrieve your lost file:

Let us know.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I couldn't find it. Snapfiles will be helpful
for the future though.

Thanks! Molly

I have another thought after reading your post, try to look in the SENT
Folder and the Draft Folder for the attachment and Save As and see if you
could retrieve it this way.

You can also do a search by date and time. This might help locate
candidates for where the file was saved.
