You invest your energy, but it disappears.
I’d like to express my frustration with Microsoft Word 2016. I invested over six hours on a coursework assignment, and the file was saved to the cloud. When I tried to save again, it kept showing me a save dialog. I copied everything into a new document and saved it in two other places. Now both files are empty, and the cloud version hasn’t updated—my work is gone. Saturday felt like a waste, and my deadline is Monday. :angry: :angry: :angry: I was supposed to begin tomorrow on another section, but I doubt I’ll succeed.
I really can't come up with an explanation for losing the file since teachers won't believe me.
I start by creating a fresh Word file, then move it to a folder named after me. Every half hour I quickly save again using CTRL+S.
It would have been great if you were contributing to the discussion instead of staying off the forum.
The delayed script was meant to save automatically every few minutes, but it didn't work....
Did you refresh Word to check for saved versions? Often, after saving, you can reopen it and notice a tiny pop-up showing a stored copy of earlier changes.
