Windows 10: Looking for a word document

I started an assignment for school a few weeks ago on Microsoft word (on a PC with windows 10), I’m 95% sure I saved it but apparently not cause its gone. By gone I mean it’s not in the file recovery folder, it’s not in my recycling bin, and a file recovery software was unable to find it. Is there anywhere else I can look before restarting it? I know the date I created it if that helps

Wrong "remove from list" document on word mobile.

Hi,

To further assist you with your concern about re-enabling files that were removed from the Recent Documents List in Word, we suggest to follow this steps:

• Click the FILE tab in the program.
• Click Options from the list on the left side of the screen.
• On the Word Options dialog box, click Advanced in the list of options on the left.
• On the Advanced screen, scroll down to the Display section. Select the value in the Show this number of Recent Documents edit box. You can choose to change the value to 0 to disable the list.
  
• When you open Word, or select the Open option in the program, there are no documents in your Recent Documents list.
• To re-enable the list, go back into the Word Options dialog box and enter the desired value (from 0 to 50, inclusive) in the Show this number of Recent Documents edit box on the Advanced screen. If any documents were previously displayed in the Recent Documents
  list, they are added to the list again.
  

We're just here if you have further questions.
