Hello Harry,

In order to help you, we need more information.  Did you save your Word Pad document before you looked for the information you added?  Could you have created another file and saved the information there?  What I would do is use Cortana to search for the key words you were looking for.  In Windows 10 press the Windows key and then type your search term and press enter.  Unfortunately, you might get Internet results too, but maybe the first results on the list will be files or e-mails on your computer which contain the key words you are looking for.

I hope this helps.
