Hello,

A co-worker lost a day's work b/c Word crashed and the auto recovered document didn't reflect her work. What folder does Word save temporary or auto-saved documents to?

Any other suggestions as to how to troubleshoot this? Thanks.

Hello,

you would need to go to File > Options > Save

you will see the autosaved folder location.

Is this a corporate setup?

Did she not save the document prior to deletion?

chances of getting it back are probably going to be impossible if this file was never saved.
