To start off, a file is never deleted. It is only marked for deletion to then be overwritten by a new file which the operating system (OS) takes care of.
The file that you used may have been marked for deletion or overwritten, depending on the the program as all programs are different as they are created by differant programmers.
You can try an "undelete" software which is available on the internet these are such programs such as www.undelete.com & www.quetek.com.
If your file is on a hard disk drive (HDD) you can use the "restore previous version" tool which allows the system to use a system restore to get a previous version of the document or file. Although don't forget that it may then overwrite the new file you created.
If these don't work then I'm sorry, but the moral is that you should have many back-ups of your files. I have recent back-ups of my USB and also many (at least 3) copies of important work at one point. You can use email sites to email small files to yourself which keeps it on the internet and retrievable anywhere, one on your USB, one on your home and work computers. When having USBs you need to know they are easily breakable, corruptable, and losable so you need these measures to keep important work safe.
Good luck
