Windows 10: How do I recover a document from One Drive that shows up blank, but indicates 20KB on my...

For many years I have used a programme, Jarte, which takes Micosoft Word Pad and turns it into a fully functioning word processor. It is a superb piece of work and, until recently, all my text files have been stored on my computer without the slightest loss. But recently, I started to use Microsoft One Drive&nbs

Blank Documents

Hello Wright,

Thank you for writing to us with the information.

At this point, I suggest you to check if you have any system restore point set prior to the issue.

To check if there is any Restore Point already created, follow the below steps.

• 
  Press Windows key + X, select System.
  
• 
  In the left pane, click on System Protection.
  
• 
  Select the option to system restore > next. It will show all restore points already created.
  

If System Restore point exists, try to revert to an earlier point wherein you can recover the file you are referring to.

Let us know the results.
