Hello,
I notice in the steps I sent yesterday that in step 5 I said that the extension for auto saved documents is .ASP. The extension is ASD for auto saved documents. Below are the steps that should work in Word 2013 and Word 2010, followed by steps that should work for Word 2007, followed by steps that should work for Word 2003. Word 2013 and Word 2010: 1. Press Alt+F to enter the backstage view. 2. Use down arrow key to the Open tab. 3. Use Shift+Tab and if you find a "Recover unsaved documents" button use spacebar. If that button isn't showing tab until you find the Recent tab and use spacebar. Use Shift+Tab from that point and see if there is a "Recover unsaved documents" button. If so then press spacebar. 4. Use Shift+Tab until you are in a list of unsaved files. 5. Use up or down arrow key to the file you want and press enter key. Each file in the list should have a .ASD extension. 6. If the unsaved file opens in the Reading Layout mode use CTRL+Alt+P to switch to print view. 7. If you use F6 you should find a pane that tells you the file is a recovered document and if you use right arrow key you should find a Save As button. Use spacebar on that button to bring up the Save As dialog box. If the pane doesn't show then use F12 in the document and save the file. In Word 2007: 1. Activate the office button by using Alt+F. 2. use up or down arrow key to find Word Options and press enter key. 3. Find the Save category in the list. 4. Tab until you find the AutoRecover file location box. 5. Select the path in the auto recover file location box and copy it to the clipboard. 6. Use escape key until back in the document. 7. Close Word. 8. Use Windows key R to bring up the Run dialog box. 9. Paste the path on the clipboard into the edit box and press enter key. 10. Check for any files with a .ASD extension and press enter key to open the one you want. 11. Use Save As to save the document in a Word format. . Steps for Word 2003: 1. Press Alt+T to go into the tools menu and then use up or down arrow keys to find the Options menu choice. Press enter on that choice. 2. use CTRL+Tab to find the Files Location tab. 3. Find the auto recover files choice and press enter. 4. Select the path and copy it to the clipboard. Be sure to copy the entire path because it might extend on to more than one line. 5. Press escape key until back in the document and close Word. 6. Press Windows key R to bring up the Run dialog box. 7. Paste the path into the edit box and press enter key. 8. Use up or down arrow keys and check for files with the ASD extension. Press enter key on the one you want to open so you can save it. 9. Save the file with a Word extension such as.DOC using the Save As dialog box. Take care.

I am using word 2010 and word 2007 simultaneously. But here I am talking about 2010, it would be great help if you could explain to recover the document in word 2007 also.
