AutoRecover

Word automatically saves your documents to a temporary folder while you're working on them. If you forget to save your changes, or if Word crashes, you can recover the autosaved file.

1. Open a document that was previously closed without saving.
2. In Backstage view, click Info.
3. If there are autosaved versions of your file, they will appear under Versions. Click on the file to open it.

4. To save changes, click Restore and then click OK.
  Restoring a file

By default, Word autosaves every 10 minutes. If you are editing a document for less than 10 minutes, Word may not create an autosaved version.
