This has happened to me a few times….. you’ve spent a while working on a document in MS Office, go to close it & it asks if you want to save changes, and for some unknown reason you press No! Panic! What do you do?

Read below to find out 🙂

Click File then Info and then click on the drop down arrow next to Manage Versions…

MS Office recover file

Select Recover Unsaved Presentations (in PowerPoint) / Documents (in Word) / Workbooks (in Excel), this will then open a dialogue box listing any unsaved files. Select the file and click Open…

MS Office open recovered file

There will be a yellow bar at the top of the page asking you to save the file, click Save As and continue as normal…

Save as recovered file

That’s it! Panic over 🙂
