jackamus Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I have set my Affinity auto save to every 300sec yet the file I was working on yesterday does not show all the additional work. Presumably if I closed the file without saving I should still have the previous auto save file. Quote If voting made any difference it wouldn't be allowed!

Staff MattP Posted January 13, 2015 Staff Share Posted January 13, 2015 The autosave file is a failsafe - if you happened to crash then we would know you didn't shut down cleanly and would offer to load from your autosave. If, however, you are given the option to save when shutting down normally and you chose not to save, then the file would be in its original, unmodified state and any autosaves would have been deleted on shutdown. So the behaviour is: If you say 'no, don't save' then your file will be the way it was when you last chose to save it. If you crashed the application then it would offer to let you recover your autosaved document state as you'd not been given the choice to save or not - because something had gone wrong.

jackamus Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Hi Matt, OK. I'm now trying to figure out if I can restore the file from Time Machine which I've set to backup every hour..
