Windows XP laptop on an SBS 2003 domain.
User logged-in to the laptop, using her usual username and password, while disconnected from the network; error message was displayed, but user cannot recall details; user was presented with a fresh desktop (only "All Users" icons were present), opened Word, and saved a document to the desktop.
Upon logging-in the following day, no error message was displayed and the user was presented with their usual desktop and the aforementioned document was gone.
The laptop was supposedly not connected to any networks during or between the two events.
I've checked the "Documents and Settings" folder, run various searches, and combed through the registry for any reference of the missing document, but no luck.
Searching for recently modified files reveals a gap from when the error message was first displayed until the log-in the following day. The last files modified before the gap seem to be related to Windows updates (KBxxxxxx).
Any ideas of where I might look for the missing document?
Thank you.
