I save every 5 minutes and all of a sudden Bricscad shuts down and it won't recover any of my work over the lst 45 minutes, The backup file is what I started with. Is there a way to find the stuff?

HELP!!!

    The path where auto-saved files are stored is defined through the SAVEFILEPATH setting variable. When keying in 'SAVEFILEPATH' on the command line, the currently set path will be echoed to the command line. At install time, SAVEFILEPATH is initialized with the path your system TEMP variable points to, most users do not modify this setting, so probably that is the location where you will find your auto-saved files.

     

    Kind regards.

    You may also be aware of this little quirk.

    Set your autosave to short interval with todays computers this shouldnt be a problem.

    By the way what you are looking for is the .sv$ file that sits where the SAVEFILEPATH pionts to.
