You can try with Word Recovery

This comes from a corrupted file located in C: \ Documents and Settings \ [your sessions] \ Application Data \ Microsoft \ Templates \.

This folder is hidden. To view hidden files and folders, go to My Computer> Tools> Folder Options> View> then check "show hidden files and folders." You should now have access to the previous folder.
