Hi everyone, hope someone can help. I am running windows 7 Ultimate and I used wordpad to modify a downloaded document which happend to be a reclaiming your ppi insurance template off moneysupermarket.com

It def saved but it saved to a temp folder.

I have tried accessing it from opening wordpad and clicking ppistep1 and it says an error has occured and it cannot be opened.

I have done a search too and nothing appears.

I can't think of anything else anyone got any ideas?

Also it said update document I think if i remember rightly when I clicked something if that helps? I'm not familar with wordpad having an update document facility.

Thanks,
Dave

Why dont you try to restore the file from back-up, Click restore My Files in the Backup and Restore console.

it may or may not help you.

 

If its a downloaded form off the net I'd be tempted to save mucking about and just download it and fill it in again tbh.

 

Because I havent enabled that yet I'm such a beginner at 7 but thanks for the advice mate

 

Think I will have to mate, was just seeing if anyone has any tricks as I did write an extra 4 pages but I will just restart it.

 

Try Recuva File Recovery? Worth a shot!

 

Go to the properties of the start menu, customize and enable recent items, then check recent items in the start menu, may be there.
