Secondly, I&nbsp;have to apologize because there is not a current recovery option when the <X> is closed on a map.</X></P><P></P><P>However, one suggestion that came to mind would be for you to essentially 'hold' the master copy. Sharing your saved master and allow others to edit a 'copy'. Or perhaps the individual could also create a master copy each day and have a working copy. I know my suggestions aren't ideal so I will definitely be taking this workflow back to our team to see what we can do in future releases.&nbsp;</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 19 Feb 2019 22:20:36 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-for-office-questions/how-do-i-get-back-a-map/m-p/829033#M175 ShannonChavez 2019-02-19T22:20:36Z
