I'd kill the process in task manager if undo and redo do nothing and then look in %AppData%\Roaming\Notepad++\backup - open each file in regular notepad - if it's not there, it's gone is what I'd say.

You're very welcome. I'm really happy to hear that you were able to recover the file. Regards, Joe
Isn't that where I said to look for it in the comment I posted an hour earlier?
