Disappearing Excel Files
I am using Vista, with Office 2007 Home.
Over the last week, I have had 2 excel files disappear. I know I didn't delete them, they both had important data. Unfortunately backups are old - I would really like to recover the files! I have not recently created the files, they have both been created about a year ago, and were regularly used and updated. There has never been a problem with the files before. They show up in the recent items list, but as an orphan link (says the file has been moved or deleted) in both recent documents and excel. They are not in the recycle bin, or found in any searches even by date and I have done a variety of searches from the explorer and the command prompt and they are nowhere to be found. Other people on the net appear to have had this problem with Excel files, but there does not seem to be a solution to recover them. Can anyone help ? Thank you ! |
