I was working on a .js file this morning on Notepad++, as usual, when the program just crashed. So I ended it, and re-opened it to see that all my code lines in my .js file, had disappeared, and now all I have left is the file with a size of 0kb because there's nothing left in it. How the hell is that even possible ? It erased everything I typed and saved the file as if there's nothing in it.
Do you know a way to get my code back ? Or did something like this ever happened to someone ? :/ I'm kinda worried because there was a lot of work there and I don't feel like re-typing it all...

Recover Unsaved or Deleted Notepad ++ files without Backup txt files or you lose unsaved Notepad++ files, you can restore form backup. However, if backup files cannot be found on PC you can use professional data recovery software- Recoverit Data Recovery and recover unsaved files.
Where does Notepad store unsaved files? Notepad usually stores unsaved files in C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming.
Notepad doesn't have an auto-save function. So when you close an unsaved text document, it may be impossible for you to get it back. But you still have a chance to recover unsaved Notepad files from the temporary files since the contents of the Notepad files have been saved on your computer temporarily.
When that option is enabled (and it is by default), Notepad++ keeps a backup copy of files you edit.
You can find the backups in the directory %APPDATA%\Notepad++\backup under the format filename@datetime.
