Hi,

You can search for another copy for your CAD dwg file ... C:\Users\#user name#\AppData\Local\Temp you will find multi old files .. check dates to see which one is your need .. also you can rename .bak files for .dwg .

If you saVed it just one time after delete, look for another file at the same folder, same name, but fileextension is.bak instead .dwg.

Rename the file and file extension to lasthope.dwg (or if your file is a dxf, lasthope.dxf).

Good luck that you saved just one time after your edits.

Hey,

next time you should ask in AutoCAD for MAC board -> Click!

But also there, it's ever a good idea to post the productname and version first. 😀
