From the first answer, I understood it would be safer to have first a copy of my #MyFile.tx#. Done. And then? If I try Alt-X recover file emacs seems to wait for the name of the file to be recovered. If I answer #MyFile.tex# or Copy_MyFile.tex emacs says "No" (...is an auto-save file or ... not current). Either M-x recover-file RET MyFile.tex RET (without the # characters), or M-x recover-session RET then navigate to the session and the file you want to recover, and press RET. There's also "M-x recover-this-file RET", which makes sense in the buffer that visits the file you want to recover -- this is generally useful when you discover that the text in the buffer doesn't include the edits you did before the crash.
