    Hi IT Researcher

    The only way I know is to compare it with a previous copy, so all you have to do is to restore from your backup (I am sure that you do take regular backups?)

    Sorry I cannot be more helpful

    If you save the file often, perhaps right clicking on the file and selecting Previous Versions will get you back to a very recent version of the document IF a Restore Point has been previously created either manually or by other activity on the computer.

    If you don't save often and backup often, you could have a problem.
