That's probably how you lost it... Make sure you save your documents... just in case if that happens again! I may not know much about Microsoft apps, or how to help the community, but I can give a few tips and/or tricks! I hope I answered your question...

- Good thought - I didnt set auto-save.
- Was it on autosave minutes before it flickered? Or was it either On just before it did/Off completely?
