This means that habitually hitting the save menu won’t (normally) do anything. By default, when you pause for 2 seconds (not typing or dragging things around in the binder), it will save any changes you’ve made recently. While this is getting more common in traditional word processors, typically the only way to prevent the loss of your work is to constantly hit CMD-S (CTRL-S on Windows) which is analogous to using the File->Save menu.īut not so with Scrivener. Scrivener’s first line of defense against data loss is the auto-save feature. Yet lost work is a preventable problem for all writers and creators of digital content how to protect your work from hard drive crashes, theft, and the dread were-badger? Well, I’m here to help, at least with regard to Scrivener’s various features that keep your writing safe. It’s usually only after a disaster that people get serious about backing up their work, and then they only do it in a haphazard mishmash of thumb drives and email attachments.
Some might say I’m a little compulsive about it, but the forums are where I’ve picked up pretty much all that I know about Scrivener. I hang out on the Scrivener forums a lot.
