Windows 10: Icannot find my documents it went blank

Icannot find my documents it went blank

my document that i save us coming up blank

Hi Jude,

If a saved document is coming up blank when opening it, it could be that the document is corrupted when it was saved, or that the document was not properly saved, etc. For us to isolate the issue about a document that opens up blank, kindly respond to the
question below:

• What application are you using to open or save the document?
• Is the issue specific to one document or with every document that you open?

We look forward to your response.

 

Opening a new Document, I get two Blank Documents instead of one

Regarding Mouse Buttons: My Primary Button is the Left Button. Most people use the right button as their primary button. To avoid confusion, I’ll write “Primary Button” or “Non-Primary Button.”

When you click on Start with your Primary Button, a small list appears above the Start Icon; the first Icon is “Power.” Then comes “Settings” “Pictures” and “Documents.” About 4 inches directly above this small list there are “three lines.” Primary-Button-click on those lines, and a long list of the apps that are on your computer will appear. First come the “Most Used.” My first three on “Most Used” are “Word” “Edge” and “Notepad.” Then comes a long list in alphabetical order. For example, under A comes “Alarms and Clocks” and under Y comes “Your Phone.”

Note: If you want to make the list of apps disappear, Primary-Button-Click on the three lines, and the list will disappear.

If you Non-Primary-Button-Click on any of these apps you get a drop-down that reads “Pin to Start” and “More.” Under “More” on the drop-down, is the possibility to “Pin to Taskbar.”

If you Primary-Button-Click on “Pin to Start,” a Tile will appear to the right in the black window. These Tiles can be used for Quick Access. When you “Primary-Button-Click” on the “Word Tile,” a window will appear with several options, the first option is “Blank Document.” Primary-Button-Click on the Blank Document, and a Blank Document will appear on the screen.

If you want to remove a tile from the Black Window, Non-Primary-Button-Click on the app in the long list, and the option to “Unpin from Start” will appear. Primary-Button-Click on the “Unpin from Start” and that Tile will disappear.

You can move the Tiles around by using "Drag and Drop."
