Posts Tagged ‘Recover query files in SQL Server Management Studio when crashed’

It sometimes happened (hope all of us experienced this one) that during working with SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) it got crashed for whatever reason. For same there is a chance that we will lose whatever queries we had open at the time of the crash. Sometimes when we re-open SSMS it will ask us to re-open any files that we recover but for some reason it doesn’t always do that and in that instance we think that our work has gone for good.

Here is a way to get some information, even if SSMS does not prompt us to recover those files they are probably still present on your machine. Go and check in your C:\Users\Virendra\Documents\SQL Server Management Studio\Backup Files\Solution1 folder.


Please share your good/bad experiences …
