asked on Cant open a 2MB ASD file
A student lost some very important project work that they had completed in MS Word.
The have found a file with the extension .ASD
WE have tried everything we can but we cannot open it.
Here is the filename: AG%20SCIENCE((Unsaved-3064
I tried to attached it to this Question/Ticket but the experts Exchange system wont allow it as they do not recognise the extension "The extension of the uploaded file is not in the list of accepted extensions."
I can email it directly to anyone who wishes to drop me an email on: TempTech31IP4IT@Gmail.com
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Robert.

What version of Office / word are you using ?
Files with that extension are used in Word's file recovery system. If you haven't had a problem with file loss or corruption, then you probably don't need it.
You can tell Word to use it via File>Manage Documents>Recover unsaved documents

i am using office 2007 but an error occurs when i attempt to open it saying that the document was created in a newer version of microsoft word and a converter is needed to open it. however the upgrade link brings me to an empty microsoft store.
I tried Ramins solution and only recovered 6 pages of the 40 page document
Any suggestions?
