Hi.
I have opened a excel file that was in the zip by double clicking.
I did not use "save-as" to manually save a copy into any particular folder.

Anyways, I made some changes, clicked on "save" icon, and tried to open the
file I just made changes to print in 1 hour.
Now I cannot find the file...

By searching on this web, I got an idea that I will have to manually save
the copy from zip file before I do anything else, but is there any ways I
will be able to find a file in my computer, since I was able to click on
"save" icon?
Was the file "saved" somewhere at least?

I have ran the search, and couldn't find it.
I checked temporary file to see, but it wasn't there.
I was wondering if anyone knows if retrieving the file at this time is still
a chance.
It happened this morning, and I have checked "most recently used files" but
couldn't find it there either.

Thank you very much for your time and kind consideration in advance, and I
hope to hear some information soon....
