So why don't you save your work at strategic points? It's not complicated,
I've even seen school kids manage to click File Save part way through doing
something.
If it was an important then you haven't been sensible, it is at least as
much your own fault. Now have a rant at your own ability to use a computer,
then resolve to save strategic restore points in the future before you rant
at the stupid electricity company, the pet, friend, work colleague or
relation who bumps the power cable etc etc. And don't forget human error-
you click the wrong button- it happens too.
