My Photoshop file is gone
My computer crashed/powered down mysteriously while I was using photoshop. I had 2 photoshop files open when it happened. (We will call them page6 and page7 since that's basically what they are). I get a notice from my PC that I need to plug it in and charge it (I'm on a laptop), only to instantly shut down anyway instead of taking about 10 minutes to do so as it usually does (and even then it has a failsafe where it has 5 minutes or so of power left). I plug in the charger and turn it back on, and when I re-open photoshop it has recovered page6, but page7 (the one i was working on at the time) is nowhere to be found. Not in the folder it was initially in, not in the crash files, recycle bin, nowhere. It doesn't show up on the photoshop Open>Recents tab. I have no proof that it ever even existed all of a sudden. Can anyone help, or at least give steps to make sure this never happens again?
Context:
-Laptop is a Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming
-Only programs open at the time were Chrome and Photoshop, so nothing strenuous
-Closest thing i can find to a trace is a tmp file with a date and time signature of right around when the crash would have been. When I open it up in notepad I can't see any text in there, it just looks like lots of empty space, yet the file is 58,359 kb. When I click and drag to select anything it's just empty spaces? I have tried but can't open it in photoshop.
