    Lost Notepad Files


    I have been stacking up Notepad files and folders: I have gathered a large collection.

    This morning I had power failure. I had to reboot.

    Try as I might I have not found a way to recover my Notepad files. Did not find any in my Windows files.

    What I read in the Internet leaves my head spinning.

    Has all been lost?

    Does anyone have a fix?

    Where have you been "stacking" these files?

    They would all be in the directory you saved them in.

    Does this help? Notepad.txt

    That is how I have been saving them.


    I have just found the stack. I have a lot files in the Documents file.

    So my problem becomes how to sift out Documents types and and then group them.

    Should be easy from here?

    Stay tuned for late breaking news.

    When these files are important for you, never thought to make a backup?
