I can’t find my power point file?

Asked By Simon D Lattimer 0 points N/A Posted on - 04/20/2015

I have been working on a power point presentation, and then it just disappeared from my screen? I hadn't yet saved it, so I am afraid I have lost all of my work. Is there a way to restore the file or find it on my laptop? I have no idea why it just disappeared?  Thank you.

Happy news, you can try recover your unsaved presentation files in the following manners, 

• Through the AutoRecover feature. (But this feature must have been activated prior by,Tools menu >> Options >> Save tab >> check Save AutoRecover info every >> select the time duration >> OK )
• Through the PPTnnnn.tmp file
  • Start >> Search >> For Files or Folders >> search for "ppt*.tmp" by typing so in the search bar >> rename the resulting files with the  ".ppt" extension and save >> the save is successful means you can recover the presentation.
• If it is Power Point 2010,  
  • Go to File >> Recent >> Recover Unsaved Presentation
