Hi :) It's rare but it happens. Try this to work-around the problem " A simpler solution is to make a small change (to activate the save icon) immediately after loading and then save the file. Once it has been saved by hand, auto-saving no longer does any harm. " It's a bug. Well, more than 1 bug it seems. Being so rare makes it difficult to trouble-shoot down to a single set of circumstances and some serious attempts to do so over the years have just shown that there are several different circumstances but it is practically impossible to separate out one single set from the others. Have you ever played Cluedo and got it down to either being Prof Plum or Miss Scarlett with either the candlestick or the lead piping and known that if it is the lead piping then it's definitely Prof Plum but if it's the candlestick then it could be either of them. Add in several dozen other factors and it starts to get tricky.
