Hi, I have been writing a paper using open office writer and was saving the document as I was writing it. When I was saving the most current document it was not saved but an earlier one was saved instead. I was also copying the file to my usb stick as well but the same file was on it as well. Each time I saved the file I checked that the file size had increase before over writing the older save file and nothing seemed to be any different in this case.
I checked Open Office forum and documentation and discovered that Load/Save option Always create backup copy was not selected. I believe this is a feature that the user must select. I checked open office user backup folder in my file system and the file is not there. Would anyone know if there would be another location this file may have been saved or stored and a way to retrieve the file? I understand that once a file is over written it is gone.
