I started an English IV research paper on my laptop and transferred the files via email to our office computer. The paper at the time only had a rough outline helping me organize my thoughts. I downloaded and opened the file using Yahoo after sending the email to myself and continued my work. Five hours later I finished my research paper. I planned on taking a break so I saved it for the last time and exited out of Microsoft Word. On my return the file was not to found anywhere on my computer. I did not use the 'Save As' function and only clicked 'Save'. The document did not prompt me to find a location so I assumed it was on my desktop. Please help. My english grade is depending on this research paper and I do not believe I can produce one of the same quality tonight. Where could the file be located?!
I also managed to melt a plastic spoon in the dishwasher so my home has been filled with toxic fumes for the past two hours.
Using IE where is the download directory? I have searched the computer ten times over using the search function and nothing has turned up. Recent documents does not show any trace of it.

ok usually on a computer there are 2 "desktops" if you checked the one first desktop (the one with all the icons where your computer first loads up) and it is not there go to the C: and look for the folder that is named desktop.
If it isn't there (or you don't have one of those) go to your C: and click the search button (it will have a magnifying glass next to it) and click that and search for the document within the last week and it will most certainly come up, but it could take a while doing this like 10 minutes or so)
