So I'm a first year uni student and I have a 2500 words essay due on Friday, so I sat down, downloaded the template from the university website and got to work, however there was one problem, I clicked "Open" rather than "Save" on the popup download window.

So I saved regularly, then once I was done I closed the word document.

I've searched everywhere for the document but can't find it anywhere, please someone help me.

Is there a piece of software that could recover the data? Is it still in a folder somewhere?

I haven't closed the browser I opened the document with (Firefox) since I closed the document, would it still be stored somewhere?

Someone please help I'm dying.
