SOS: file recover

Hallo all, I made some revisions on a c sharp file in visual studio 2008 express, and committed the following actions: 1. open this c sharp file thru notepad, 2. tried to save some modifications in this file while it was opened by the notepad, 3. Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to make a copy to this file 4. closed vi开发者_开发百科sual studio 2008 and notepad

Then this c sharp file dissappears! Please help!

It's gone forever. The only thing you can really hope for is to pair the situation with the appropriate whiskey.

If it was months of work down the drain, I would choose Ancient Age out of the plastic bottle.

if you right click in your project and then goto add existing you should be able to re-add it.

As to why it disapears i am not sure ... i guess it may be a file handle problem.

Is there a repository, a version control system, or something like that? Otherwise, let your code RIP.

Sounds like it has probably gone forever, but you should be able to recover it from your daily backups. You do take daily backups don't you....?
