Oh no - so sorry to hear that. Just a thought, you say you've been looking for the file where you saved it. If you've done it in word and you go to file menu at the top of the page and look at the last thing you did before it crashed - is that document blank also?

Good point. Or try searching for something in the file, the title for instance....

Sorry to hear your PC crashed at least some of it was saved and you don't have to re do the whole lot.

I'd change 'auto save' to be a bit more regular.

I can feel your frustration, having done very similar myself in the past.
