I opened my word document, which contained about 7 – 8 pages, but now it only shows one page. The page counter says Page 1 of 2, while only one page is visible. The word count seems to have everything, it shows 983 words. The document had about 90 images, only two are visible.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue? How can I restore my document?
My previous files folder is empty.

Under View > Web Layout
I get my tables and words to appear! That's a good sign, but my images are not present. Is there a way to see if the objects (images) are still present on the document? It opens and closes slowly (as if the file still contains 40 images).
Here's an image.
Any Thoughts?

I used the navigation panel to see Find: Graphics and sure enough, there were all 91 images listed, but still only two pages listed (with only a single page visible).

I found a solution to my problem. In the end, I managed to save all the work I had done including: text, tables, and importantly images.
Here's my solution steps:
1) Open the broken document.
2) Go to View > Web Layout .
3) Ctrl + A (Select All items on document).
4) Open a new Document.
5) Right Click, choose paste Keep Source Formatting.
6) Save the new document.
If anyone encounters a similar bug, hopefully, these steps work for them as well.
Let me know if you have any questions.
