You can check C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\My Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Backup Files\ (or the equivalent on your system).

Files will be placed there if automatic recovery is enabled, which, in my opinion, is the default. If you want to verify that the feature is enabled, follow these steps: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/zainnab/archive/2010/06/30/autorecover-vstipenv0019.aspx

Another top tip is to set “Save all changes” before creating. This parameter is located in the Parameters section of the Projects and Solutions / Build and Run section.
