    In Word, try clicking File > Info > Manage Document > Recover Unsaved Documents.

    Hi Kathy

    Are you using Office 365 (subscription), if so, and you are saving your Office documents to OneDrive (autosave) then there may be a version of that document available on OneDrive

    Check on this link for that document:

    https://www.office.com/launch/word

    If not there, click the 'More on OneDrive' link to see if your document exists there
