Lately I’ve noticed that even though I’m getting the auto-recovery message, whenever I check in my autosave folder (C:\Users\User_Here\Documents\ROBLOX\AutoSaves) nothing shows up.
In the past there was the ability to set where it saves to (as indicated in this post but now it doesn’t give me an option (view screenshot below).
That’s how it’s supposed to work. My issue is even if I open up a place it studio, let it autosave, and then look in the folder, nothing shows up. I deleted my old Autosaves folder, and Roblox Studio doesn’t even create a new autosave directory.
The Studio Auto-Saves folder has moved (which is why it isn’t getting re-created when you deleted it). The new location on Windows is: C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Local\Roblox\RobloxStudio\AutoSaves (also accessible as %LOCALAPPDATA%\Roblox\RobloxStudio\AutoSaves).
