Studio claims to be autosaving when in reality, nothing happens

[Stickman_Josh (stickman)]

I was working on a project and had not saved in a while (completely my fault, however I was in belief that auto-recovery had me covered) when all of the sudden, my studio freezes and I lose my progress. Since the output kept on showing me that the place had been auto-recovered, I went and checked my files just to find that the last autosave was LAST YEAR.

Firstly I checked my studio settings and found no section for the autosave directory?

I’ve checked everywhere to no success. I ended up checking online to see if anyone had a solution and I couldn’t find any recent posts, so I am posting this in hopes that there is a fix or maybe I am missing something.

Had you previously published the place? If so, it autosaves to the Roblox servers, instead of a local server.

You are checking Documents/Roblox/AutoSaves, right? Did it prompt you with an Auto Recovery message? Also, check what @SeargentAUS said, maybe it auto-saved to your published game instead of a file.
