hashtags and access

Hello,
I am looking for support on how to fix an issue which has occurred while using open office. I have just finished an important document but when I tried to open it again it said I was not authorised to open it and when I did it had replaced all the text with hashtags. When I look at the file it says it was last saved at the time I finished my document so I think I have saved it, but I can no longer find it, I had perhaps changed a few words then forgot to save it after that, causing the glitch. Please help

regards
Craig

Your file is currupt, possibly because of over-hasty power down of the computer before the internal buffers of the hard drive had been written to disk.  Look at this tutorial

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=71&t=85038#p395910

for methods of recovering OO temporary files, which may contain some. all, or none of your data.
