Large word document deleted what to do?

Sorry for my spelling right now, but I really don't want to pay attention.

I have a huge problem.

I wrote a large word document that has almost 20 pages. My laptop then updated and everything was gone. I can't restore it. I tried everything.

Do you have another tip for me? It is very, very important…

I can't restore it anymore

You say it! The only option I know is that you used OneDrive and it automatically saved it somewhere 🤔

Can you try to load a backup from your laptop on it, then it should be back but I don't know if it works

I've already searched everything and nothing works. Gave up my hope

Any automatic cloud system? I have magenta cloud. That loads automatically.

Before you try anything else, you may not have saved it where you wanted it.

Start a search for * .docx in "This PC" there you will find all Word files. Don't be surprised it takes forever.

Doesn't work

What could work but is expensive is a win recovery. NO new installation!

The shortcoming here is that WINDOWS resets to a point and actually does NOT go to the files. But it's worth a try.

So you go back to one point. The update is the ingenious one.

In order to get rid of incorrect updates cleanly, a restore point is set before each update.

Example you have

written from 07:01:20 to 12:10:55.
The update came at 13:12:09 sets the right point and installs itself
The computer restarts at 13:16:02
at 13:18:00 the computer has booted up and the file is gone.

Operating systems can travel back in time…

You start the restoration here

Settings / Win Update / Restore reset the PC.

And go back to the point at 13:12:09.

I don't know if that helps but it's worth a try.
