I have had this same issue, and my experience seems to be this: Finale no longer creates a separate file (at least not where you can find it), and the AutoSave function also doesn’t interrupt Finale the way it used to. I struggled with this for months - thinking it wasn’t working at all. However, if there is a crash, the file will reopen in an AutoSaved form. The system is working in the background - you just can’t find the file as a separate entity. I have finally relaxed about this, as the system seems to work reliably. It’s just different from the way it used to work.
I hope I am right about this. So far, it’s been OK. Chuck > On May 21, 2015, at 8:04 AM, John Roberts <an...@nycap.rr.com> wrote: > > No, it doesn't exist per se.
