I have followed the following suggestion that was posted on here but it says "The folder can't be found".

The path that was suggested is: /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/Office 2011 AutoRecovery

Can someone please help? I am desperate.

As the /Users/username/Library folder is a hidden folder since OS X 10.7 and not by default searched by Spotlight it's incredibly stupid that this folder is auto-suggested when saving a recovered file.

Also since there IS a folder with the same name under Documents/Microsoft userdata/ that is empty this was hard to find!

To go to this folder, open Finder and in the menu click Go » Go to Folder… or press ⇧⌘G. Then, paste the path from above.

Another way to get to your hidden user library directory.

Switch to the "Finder" and hold down the "Option" key and select "Go" in the Menu Bar up top and you will see "Library" listed.

Select this item and from there you can navigate the path provided to you in the previous post.
