My place place I worked on for 3 hours is gone

I was working on a game, saved it, and when I tried to publish it to roblox it wouldn’t work, the option to publish it was greyed out. I decided to just exit out and try again ( I wasn’t prompted to save because I already did) but when I tried to load the place It was gone from both auto saves and normal saves. Is it just completely gone now?

Did you say it was a place? If it is, you first have to go into “Configure This Game”. Then, go down into “Places”. You should see it there.

If it autosaved find the file path to autosaved files.
As @Fid6et said, try to find the game in the “Configure This Game” on the game page.
If not, chances are you’ve lost your work.

I still can’t find it anywhere

Strange. I’m assuming that you’ve lost your work. I’m terribly sorry.

Pretty tragic, haven’t happened to me but i feel sorry for you.

Try opening it from the Roblox Studio app directly, or looking inside Version History? You should probably start saving your games to file if you want your game to gave a 100% safety

I think you might have made the game on a baseplate and didn’t actually make the place itself, where you can access the game settings and all that jazz.

I did, I was just working on my place that I already created like a month ago and I have like 80 different version of it, I saved often

Do you have autosave turned on?

Yes, and I always saved before quitting and I remember saving before this, like I said it didn’t even prompt me to save when I quit because I already did

I’ve had this happen to me before I think it’s a studio bug sadly.

I’m very frustrated that I lost all of my progress. I’ve been working on this game for the past 3 hours. I’m not sure what happened.
