How to perform Word File Recovery?

Microsoft Word is a full-featured word processing program provided with Microsoft Office. Microsoft Word is used to create different types of business and personal documents like letters, resumes, flyers, academic reports, etc. Microsoft Word application saves the files in any of two different formats i.e. .doc and .docx. MS Word 2003 and earlier versions save the files in .doc format. Whereas, MS Word 2007 and higher versions of MS Word saves the files in .docx format

Features of the Microsoft Word program:

Live Preview: This feature temporarily applies formatting on the highlighted text, when any formatting button is moused over it and removes that formatting when the mouse pointer is moved from the button. This helps users to preview the appearance of text without actually applying it.

Mini Toolbar: When you select the text, it is automatically shown in semi-transparent form until the mouse pointer is located on control. It provides easy access to the most used formatting commands.

Spelling and Grammar Checker: Spell and grammar checker checks the spelling and grammar either as you type or when you are ready to check or review the entire document.

In spite of these amazing features, the Word files might get corrupted due to various reasons like round-tripping, application crashes, power failure problems, macro virus attack, etc. When .doc file get corrupted, users may encounter some error messages like-

• “Word cannot open the document”
• “The document path is invalid”
• “Users does not have access privileges to Word file”

These errors do not you allow to open the DOC file resulting in inaccessibility. MS Word has AutoRecover and AutoSave options. AutoRecover is helpful only when unexpected disruption occurs. AutoSave option saves the data based on the allocation of a specified time in the Minute box. Therefore, always try to save the data manually.

Common reasons for deletion or loss of .doc files:

• Accidental deletion of .doc file: DOC files may get accidentally deleted using Shift+Delete keys or Windows Command prompt resulting in loss of files. When .doc or .docx files are deleted using Shift+Del keys, they are not moved to Recycle Bin. Instead, they bypass the Recycle Bin resulting in loss of the Word files.
• Mistakenly emptied the Recycle Bin: When you accidentally empty the Recycle Bin, all the files stored in Recycle Bin get deleted resulting in loss of .doc files.
• Virus attack: This is a common problem that causes loss of .doc files. Viruses are the destructive programs, which have an ability to replicate themselves and cause loss of .doc or .docx files. However, you can employ the Office File Recovey tool to restore lost Zip file after a severe virus or malware attacks with great ease.
