Recovering Temp File

How do I recover a temporary (gw???.tmp) file?

If a Windows error or crash occurs while using GoldWave, you may be able to recover the temporary file provided you are not using RAM storage.

In GoldWave v5

Use the Options | Storage command to determine the location of the temporary folder. Open the gw???.tmp file in GoldWave. If the "File Format" window appears, select the Raw file type and the "IEEE float signed 32 bit, little endian" attributes with either "mono" or "stereo". Set the rate for the file (44100 for CD).
