Hi,

If you want to recover notepad file that is unsaved after a restart, please go to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming to find if unsaved text file located there.

Thanks for your time!

Anne

You may try third party application like Recuva.

Notepad files are in memory , only when saved are transferred on the file system...
Sorry, no chance to find it, nor Recuva neither temporay file in appdata.

Other editor like Notepad++ are designed for avoiding this problem
