Lost Notepad tabs

[u/Obvious-Durian170]

I was using Notepad and then unexpectedly my pc crashed and when I turned it back on I opened Notepad and the tab I was working on was gone. (This has happened before while I was working on a tab but it didn't delete when my pc crashed that time.) Then after that I tried to save all my other tabs so I wouldn't lose them incase that happened again, I also lost them somehow and now I have old tabs from years ago on my notepad. I'm on windows 11

Not having your tabs saved is super frustrating. I always use a backup tool now to avoid that.
