I just lost my program!

Hey guys. I am running Visual Studio .NET 2005 Beta 1. Now, I was programming
my application that I started today, I compiled it, pressed CTRL-S to save,
and then my computer shut down 5 seconds later.

I boot back into VS2005, and lo and behold, the application is not there.
Nowhere to be found.

I have no system restore points today, so that's no option. My question is...

How the heck do I find at LEAST the executable? I really need it.

Thank you.

Hi Pat,

Did you look for the solution in the folder in which you originally created
it?

Thanks for the reply...

Yes, I did. It's not there. I guess in the new version, even if you press
"CTRL-S" it wont save it until you "Save it As" into a folder.

It must be somewhere... don't you think?

I'm sure that it is there but when VS.NET crashes while you are working on a
project for the first time, it won't show that project in the recent project
list.

Do a hard drive search for .vb or .cs (depending on what language you were
working in) and see if your project files show up somewhere.

Have you looked under My Documents\Visual Studio? IIRC that's where
unsaved projects are stored until you save them.
