jackamus Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Does the 'History' of a file disappear once the file has been saved? Quote If voting made any difference it wouldn't be allowed!

Alfred Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 The ‘History’ isn’t saved with the file unless you choose to ... er ... ‘Save With History’ but it doesn’t disappear until you close the document.

jackamus Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 OK thanks Alfred. I've never saved the history before but this time I accidentally saved the wrong file to the correct filename and lost all the new work!. I checked my backup to see in the original file was intact but it wasn't. I guess that If I had saved with history I could have stepped back to the original now work. i have now learned something new and that's not bad at my age!

Failix Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 @jackamus: It's certainly not a bad idea to save your work at regular intervals, on Windows possibly with an ancient freeware like this: https://beanland.net.au/autover/ Works very reliably for me under Win 10 and has already straightened out some of my mistakes.

jackamus Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 I have a Mac and my backup system is configured to save regularly unfortunately this time the damage was done between these backup periods.
