edsweld Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I accidentally removed drawings from drawing recovery manager thinking that I was just removing it from the list and not from my computer. Is there a way to get it back? Quote
ReMark Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Try searching your hard drive for files of the type .sv$ for starters. Quote
rkmcswain Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Removing items from the Drawing Recovery palette does not delete them from disk. You'll just have to find them manually. By default, autosave files are in %temp% Quote
edsweld Posted January 20, 2017 Author Posted January 20, 2017 Thanks all! I found it I forgot that cleaned up some folders and moved that file. Autocad had it listed in the recent dwg list but couldnt find it so I panicked. Evidently it wasnt open long enough for an autosave anyways. It was a recovered file that I renamed xxx recovered.dwg just moments before Quote
ReMark Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 You renamed AND you moved it. That explains everything. Well, glad to hear you eventually found it. Thanks for updating us. Lesson learned right? Quote
