So sorry, lone_twin4. I hope you can put this behind you and get on with the essay.
Good luck. |

Omg that sucks so bad! It's happened to me before and I know how terrible it feels! I'm no computer professional but if the file's still there you just can't open it, there should probably be some remnant of your essay there.. I don't know, I'd try opening it with notepad or google problems (I'm sure there are 'unscramblers' out there, people can even recover information from burnt computers, so..) But if you can't recover any, then I guess you just have to deal with it. Give yourself a piece of pie and keep strong!

Haha thanks guys! I ended up spending an hour trying to recover it an unscramble it... I'm not very PC-literate but my Dad helped and we still couldn't recover it. However I've now retyped it all from memory

Oh, I've had that happen to me with an external hard drive; it's not a good feeling to suddenly lose a bunch of information.
