saved a file and now I can't find it
I can't believe I did this, but I opened a file sent to me as email attachment. I made some edits in word and clicked save (not save as)), and close and now I can't find it. I've searched for it by name and it's not coming up anywhere. Any ideas on how I can get to it? Thanks!
Actually that file may or may not exist for you outlook actually creates a random directory it seems to find where your go to Regedit and the entry under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software \Microsoft \Office\11 .0\Outlook \Security
Called OutlookSecureTempFolder contains your location
if you copy that path into run it should take you to your secure folder.

Thanks for the response.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software \Microsoft \Office\11 .0\Outlook \Security
Copy this path exactly as is into "Run"? I tried that and it's saying it doesn't exist. T

thanks!
If you are using outlook when you open an attachment it saves it in your temporary internet directory under an OLK directory
if you go Start --> Run --> type "C:\Documents and Settings\INSERTUSERNAMEHER
It should take you to the correct directory from memory.
