frer8833 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) I use to have maybe over 100 pictures open (inlcuding screen shots) and then I get a crash and lose everything, it happened many times. Can I somehow get back these files, can I make a setting so that Paint.net temporarily saves files to a temp folder until I close the program and then it will erase them?

BoltBait Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 How about saving those files instead of leaving them open with changes? That's what we all do. 1 Quote Click to play: Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and how about a Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frer8833 Posted May 3 Author Share Posted May 3 (edited) I don't have the time to do that because I have to add the pictures very fast. After I added all the pictures I save them. I asked earlier for autosave but it was rejected by another admin. Maybe Paint. net have secret reasons for not making it easier?

Disk4mat Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Hmmm... Could you work with smaller batches? 50 images then 50 more etc... In theory it should not add that much more time. You can save 50 in have the time of a hundred and move on to the other 50 save those at your leisure. I know what you want, but until that day comes you need to adjust your work flow.

Saving them is faster than losing the lot and having to recreate them. Ctrl + S is not exactly slow. 1 Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowing down and saving as you go would save more time than having a crash that wipes out your work. 10 hours ago, frer8833 said: Maybe Paint. net have secret reasons for not making it easier? No ... ? There's no secret conspiracy here to make your life more difficult 😂 1 Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
