If the AutoRecover option is turned on, you can automatically save versions of your file while you’re working on it. How you recover something depends on when you saved it.
If you’ve saved the file
Open the file you were working on.
Go to File > Info.
Under Manage Workbook or Manage Presentation, select the file labeled (when I closed without saving).
In the bar at the top of the file, select Restore to overwrite any previously saved versions.
Tip: In Word, you can also compare versions by clicking Compare instead of Restore.
If you haven’t saved the file
Go to File > Info > Manage Document > Recover Unsaved Workbooks in Excel, or Recover Unsaved Presentations in PowerPoint.
Select the file, and then select Open.
In the bar at the top of the file, select Save As to save the file.
