■■■■ man, I do not know what to say right now.
I’ve just encountered a humugous bug and lost 6 hours work.
I’ve had this before… I save periodically, every 20mins or so. And have done…
Then, after some operation, not even anything intense, I think i was just copying a rectangle and putting it somewhere else, the program crashed. I thought nothing of it, I figured, maybe by 2gb Win7, DualCore Intel (8+yr old laptop) just ran out of RAM or something.
But the infuriating thing is, the file which I saved numerous times throughout the day shows no sign at all of having been saved (judging by the save modified date in windows explorer).
This is beyond belief arrgravating, as the work I was doing was challenging enough as it is.
This is the 2nd time Sketchup has done this to me.
Sketchup pro 2016 . I feel like binning this software.
Is there anywhere Sketchup saves a backup please?
This is desperate.
regards.
EDIT: Sketchup also lost its brain over the UI/tool layout, is this relevant?
EDIT 2: Last time this happened was in 2017, thread here, but it’s been closed:

PS Ive got auto-backup enabled.
