PLEASE: HOW CAN I RETRIEVE a Very Important Calc doc that I have just lost
after saving it? Please, please, help me Retrieve it.
  MY OS: Windows 10 Home
  Version: 22H2
  LibreOffice version: 7.5.8.2

I created a new Calc file 2 days ago and was working on it, editing it and
saving it just normally. Today was the 3rd and last editing day. And upon
editing everything, I clicked on "save icon" as I usually do. Surprisingly, I
saw a pop-up message saying something like: " File is overwritten by Others". I
went on and clicked "Save Anyway". At that time of editing, there were no other
files open on my laptop.

After saving and reopening the File, I realized that NONE of the latest Updates
that I made today was saved --everything was lost. ONLY data saved in the past
2 days were available.
Then I noticed that a new Temporary file: " lu2984p1x82 - TMP File - 0KB " was
created in the Folder next to my Calc file

I went into my Recycle Bin to see if I could Retrieve my lost up-to-date file.
I found the same TMP File above and click to restore it with LibreOffice
(option). After restoring and opening it, I saw that it contained the sae old
data saved 2 days ago. So, I proceed to delete the TMP file in my Folder. Upon
deleting the TMP file, I realized that even my original Calc File with saved
data in the past 2 days was also gone :-(. Now I don't know WHERE and HOW to
find it.

THIS IS A DISASTER because starting all over again is just a pain in the ass. I
needed to sand the final file to my client by tomorrow.
PLEASE, please HELP me retrieve my FILE.

Thanks
