Notepad - accidental save vice save as...

I'm working in Notepad and accidentally clicked "save" vice "save as",
effectively overwriting the file that I was using as a template. Does
Windows keep archives of previous editions for a blunder such as this so that
I may resurrect the previous oversaved material?
Thanks
AB.

No.

No, not if you didn't make a backup copy first, sorry.

YES!
