I accidentally saved a new excel file over another file. How do I recover the original excel ?

Roadrunner50401952 If you're on Windows:
Right-click the workbook in File Explorer.
Select Properties from the context menu.
Activate the Previous Versions tab and wait to see if it becomes populated.
If there is a version from before you overwrote it, copy the older version to a different name and/or location.
If not: I hope you have a recent backup of the old workbook...
