How to recover a lost Word document
in Software ·
Hey there
So, here’s my situation. I was working on a paper and saved everything onto a flash drive—only for the drive to completely die on me. Now I'm wondering if there's any way to actually get that document back onto my computer. I’m using Microsoft Word 2003, and when I launch the program, I can see the file listed under "Open"—but obviously, every time I try to actually open it, I just get an error message. Makes sense, given the drive is toast, but I'm hoping for a miracle.
