Completely agree. I remember having problems with AutoSave and backups way back in version 2, when the system would lock up while it was saving, and I think we had virtually this same discussion soon after I joined the list about 15 years ago, probably regarding Fin3.7 or 2001, and that's why I never use it. I might be wrong but ISTR the problem is connected with temporary files not being deleted. As said before, the best thing is to get into the habit of saving manually.
