Missing Document

[originalsbyterry]

I have this intermittent problem. I do not know if it is with Word or my computer. I will create a document and then save it. I always assume it is saved to Documents and it usually is. However, sometimes when I look for it in my documents, it is not there. I then do “Search programs and files” and the computer tells me that it is there, but it is not. I do this repeatedly and even recreate the document and save it again. Neither one is in Documents, although the computer keeps insisting that they are.

The only way that I can find it is to do a computer-wide search and then it tells me it has been saved in a FLASH DRIVE. I did NOT save it to a flash drive, I would not even know how to do that.



Can anyone help me?
