I worked on a paper for several hours that was work-related. Several
conference calls had to be made, and I was interrupted several times as
well. To gather all of the information was time consuming, to say the least,
then all of a sudden my computer was froze and I wasn't able to even save my
work. The doc was several pages and full of important dates/facts. I
frequently save work on line, but don't usually need to save work on my
writing programs in general. The only option was to cancel or "end now".
Cancelling only keeps you in that "frozen" state indefinitely, and "end now"
was the only option I had, unless I exited from the computer/shut down, etc.
Is there anyway to prevent having to lose all the data in the future other
than continuously "saving" every few minutes? Additionally, is there any
way to possibly recover my documents that have been lost due to this problem
in the past? I figure, if the detectives/computer experts can retrieve any
data ever completed, and any searches on-line, etc. etc. for court evidence,
and everything remains stored forever on the computer, then there has to be
a way for the user to recover it as well. Am I wrong? I've lost so many
documents/papers over the past 10 years for various reasons, and so much
time is wasted. As soon as you drop your guard and don't save every
paragraph, that's when it happens. I'll appreciate any help regarding this
question I can get! Thank You! B. Moore email address [EMAIL PROTECTED]
