New here and hoping for some help. Have searched the web and now understand that you shouldn't edit documents when you have opened them in live mail without saving to a folder first. However that's what I did and have lost my thesis document with extensive edits.
I have searched my computer and come up with one item in the windows cashe from about the time I saved and closed the document but am unable to open it. It is a DB file - although my document wasn't a database just a word doc.
I have tried downloading the various database opening software programmes to have a look at the cashe file but no luck.
I did reopen the document from live mail so may have overwritten the whole thing anyway but I live in hope that the cashe item is what I need. Can anyone tell me a simple way I could view it?
