Hi.
My wife brought home a USB stick with a Word 2010 docx file on it to work on. She was able to open it, but when she saved it, Word 2010 deleted the docx file completely and replaced it with a "filename.doc.xml" file. Completely removing the original docx file....
When you click to open it, Notepad tries to open it, but cannot. If you right click on it, select open with: Word, Word tries, but belly-aches about a character error in the file.
Not sure why it would completely remove the original file.....no temp file as a back up either....
Thanks,
Jim
PS Before she went back to the office to work on it, I did notice some sort of "encriptor" file at the bottom of the file list????
