We have 2 computers at home. I emailed a Microsoft Word document to my own email address, to enable me to open it on the other computer and edit it. I did that, saved the document, but when I tried reloading it, Word said it couldn't locate it! Where did my dratted computer save my file to? Can it be retrieved? Thanks in advanced, a stressed computer amateur

It is very likely in My Documents. Open the email again, select the attachment and this time open it (by double-clicking or selecting Open). Word will open with the document. Now you will be able to use Save As to save it where you want.

Try Start>>Search, click on documents or all files and folders, fill in the document's name in the box and click on Search.
Just a thought....did you save the document to your folder or did you amend it only in the email? It may be that the amended version is in the email only.

you need to figure out where your files download to when you open them via email.....(most either go to the desktop or my documents) should be there...
but don't stress, it's still on the other computer.

Use your search and search by date [you might find this in advanced options] select modified/created on date you saved it.
