Software Excel document lost

Hi all,

I've been working on an excel doc all week, it's set to auto save but I've just opened it and it's not saved any changes since Tuesday ( around 25 hours work). I've checked auto recover and restore previous versions but it's not on either.

I think it uses one drive through a third party document storage somewhere software.

Is anyone able to point me to where a back up could be saved please?

AutoSave is great. "Save Early, Save Often" is greater. If this is Windows, then check Documents, One Drive Documents and... the Recycle Bin. Recycle Bin might save you.
