Every minute ClickCharts will automatically save your changed, unsaved file into an auto-save folder. When you close ClickCharts and if the diagram have been closed normally, the files in the auto-save folder will be automatically removed.

Auto-Save can be enabled/disabled through Options dialog. The interval of saving files can also be set from the dialog. Options dialog can be accessed from the toolbar: by select Edit tab and then select Options button, or from the menu: File->Options.

Crash Recovery

If ClickCharts crashes or the diagram did not close normally, the files will remain in the auto-save folder and will be opened automatically next time ClickCharts runs. Automatically opened auto-save files will be removed once they are closed. To keep the recovered file, click the File menu and select Save As to save it into another folder and file name.

The auto-save folder can be found by following the path (User Documents Folder)->"ClickCharts"->"AutoSave". Auto-saved files have ".autosave" inserted after the normal file name. To recover an auto-saved file, move it out to another folder and rename it with a ClickCharts extension (.ccd). Avoid opening files in the auto-save folder as they will be deleted when ClickCharts shuts down normally.
