[Hidden-tech] Recover lost documents on Mac OS (no icloud)

[Shel Horowitz]

Try searching for a couple of keywords in one of the documents. If it shows
up, you will see the folder hierarchy. It is possible you accidentally
renamed the documents folder and it's all still there.

And if a finder search doesn't help, try searching from within an
application such as word. The Mac's find function got a lot funkier several
years ago. Though it is still way better than a PC.
