--- Comment #6 from Justin L <jl...@mail.com> --- (In reply to Stéphane Guillou (stragu) from comment #5) > I'd suggest to re-focus this report on: "AutoRecovery should also work on > unsaved files". > > Justin, what do you think, following your autosave/autorecovery adventures? I would fully expect AutoRecovery to work on unsaved files. But there are way too many variables at play in this bug report to be able to do anything about finding out whether there is a real bug somewhere. In short, we need reliable steps to consistently reproduce. (And testing must be done using 24.2, not previous versions.) Issues are: * what restart are we referring to? The restart after modifying the "save every x minutes" isn't valid because autosave hasn't been running yet. So the steps to reproduce in comment 0 are not valid. (P.S. restart not requested/required to activate autoRecovery in 24.2) * after 24.2, a blank document should not be recovered (unless it remained blank for over 10 minutes). The one case I could imagine is if the user worked for 40 minutes without a 15 second pause. Without a user idle period, the save never actually has a chance to get started, so in this case there wouldn't be ANYTHING to recover. (bug 48416). So the steps to reproduce need to indicate length of time spent before the restart, and how active the user was prior to the restart. Comment 3's steps are good, but they show that things are working as expected... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
