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.
