AJDesignerVA Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hello everyone, I am an soon to be an Adobe convert after using it from almost it's beginning, I am loving Affinity! I am using the trial of Affinity Photo and went to export my design to cut on a plotter and *BOOM* I hit the wrong export link - I hit Export in Designer but my Designer Trial has expired so it just shut down, I went back to Affinity Photo and ALL my work was gone... Is there a way I can restore what I worked on for 4 hours or am I going to have to start over? Thanks in Advance for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl123 Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 The "Edit in Designer" and "Edit in Photo" options have occasionally failed for me to the point that I now always save the file first before using them. If your autosave is set on you may want to look in the autosave folders for both Photo and Designer to see if there is anything in them (preferably before closing photo) Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Callum Posted July 4, 2018 Staff Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hi AJDesignerVA, I'm sorry to hear this happened to you this happened to me a few days ago and I have been pushing to add a auto save to this since hopefully I will have good news soon. Thanks Callum Quote Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJDesignerVA Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 Thank you all for the replies! I could not get any of the suggestions to work, it's 4:00 am and I am calling it a night/morning lol I will just start over in the morning and make sure I save every few minutes and hit the right export link lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
