I opened up my email and downloaded a word document attachment. Instead of save, I hit open and worked on it from there. Then, in the end, I clicked the save icon on the toolbar. It seemed to save and then I closed out. But now I can't find the file again. I have no idea where it is. Did I lose it? Can I recover it?
Can you help?

Is it still part of the e-mail

If you try to open it then save it, it may say a file of this name already exists

I've used it to find hidden files, but not system files. How do I do that?
