Last 6 months of Word and Live Mail files vanish
Today my wife discovered that Word docs and LiveMail inbox messages since May 5 of this year have disappeared. They are not in Recycling or otherwise findable, and Word doesn't even remember her working on them.
Win7 Enterprise, LiveMail 2012, Word 2010
I checked System Restore and there were no restores available before today, 11/23. When I've tried restores before, they would be available farther back.
I also note that in looking around for Chkdsk I opened up the disk defragmenter module. It's set to run every week, and the last time it ran was on May 6. So there, too, we have a missing time interval. Ran Chkdsk, no problems found.
what caused this? Atm, everything else seems to be ok, but should I should I be worrying about a hard drive problem? I've never heard of anything like this. TIA
