Hi
I need help.
I accidentally sent a notepad to the recycle bin. When I
restored it all the information on it had disappeared. I guess
I had not saved it. Can I recover the information I had
written If I restore my computer to an earlier date?

Thank you

dsette was right. That counts for anything in MS Office, Wordpad or the like... unless you were running 'RedHand Pro' at the time. From what I remember, it records every keystroke - whether you saved the file or not.
