Have you emptied the Recycle Bin? If not, you'll find your
document there. Double-click on the Recycle Bin to open it. If
you see your document there, right-click it and choose Restore.
It will be moved back to its original location.

Hello All,

My wifeand I are seniors and we unfortunately deleted a very
important Excel
document, a spreadsheet.

We have found software programs that will restore the document,
but cannot
afford the $50 for just the one document.

Is there an easier and less expensive way to retrieve this
document?

Please help!

Loretta and Alan
