Roblox Studio Auto-Recovery Pop-up

By any chance can someone tell me what this message means, how to prevent this message from appearing in the future, and if I were to click “delete,” what would happen?

I’ve been getting this message everytime I open Studio for the last 3 years and I always click ignore. I never clicked “delete” because I have no idea what an auto-recovery file is and I’m scared that if I were to click “delete” something important will be deleted.

It’s just telling you studio wasn’t closed properly.

If studio doesn’t close properly, but it had created an auto-recovery file beforehand, then it will show that message.

You can just press Delete if you haven’t actually lost any progress, but you could open them just in case you did lose any progress.

Under normal closing circumstances, auto-recovery files are automatically deleted, but if studio isn’t closed properly for whatever reason, they will become persistent and studio will display that message.
