The EXCEL worksheet disappears
MACBOOK . Hi guys, when I was using excel today, because there were a lot of worksheets, I moved one of the worksheets out, thinking it was going to be a separate one, and the worksheet disappeared, and the back key didn't work. I was wondering how anyone could find the worksheet before it disappeared.

If you accidentally closed the window without saving…
Look in ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Excel/Data/Library/Preferences/AutoRecovery
(you can use Finder > Go > Go to Folder) for autosave files.
Access the AutoRecovery Folder on a Mac:
In the top menu, click Go > Go to Folder...
Paste this path:
~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Excel/Data/Library/Preferences/AutoRecovery
You might see files like:
AutoRecovery save of MyWorkbook
AutoRecovery save of Workbook1
These are Excel’s autosaved files. You can open them in Excel, and they might contain your missing worksheet.
Hope this helps you.
