'don't save'

[RavenRunes]

I've just shut down a doc I was working on and clicked 'don't save' by accident.
fuck my life.

You poor bastard. My condolences.

That's why I use Apple.

I bet this never happened to Charles Dickens. I mean, it's a bit harder to trip and fall into the fire with an armful of paper than it is to smack the 'don't save' button WHY WOULD I NOT WANT TO SAVE IT, why is it even an option?! That's what 'cut' is for?!

Main Reason I use google docs. Saves every second.

Write a sentence, hit ctrl+s, write a sentence, etc. I've gotten into that habit due to losing a ton of stuff from power outages and the like. But also, google docs is great, I don't need to put my stuff on a USB to swap computers anymore.

Nice.

Now write it better, idiot.

Get in the habit of clicking save before you close, just in case.

Become a spastic saver. It will save your writing life.

There's a feature in Word that allows you to recover unsaved files. Have you tried that, or are you beyond fucked?

You could've saved that doctor... how could you...

Look on the bright side. Now you can rewrite it by just remembering the important parts.

Actual writing method by the way.

I tried looking for something like that but couldn't find owt. In the end I did what others suggested and re-wrote but betterer. In my defence I was tired and eager to log off. WILL not happen again

also does anyone know what's up with the 'backup of backup of...' files??

Almost constant upload to cloud is enabled so even if you don't save it'll save automatically. Also, it has the undo command that pretty much goes back several cloud saves.

word has an autosave feature if you save your file on Onedrive
