![]() If you close the file, the autosave is purged (as mentioned above).So if checking the time stamp is important to you, you need to double click the file in Finder outside of SU. When using Open, it displays a familiar Finder window, except the timestamp is removed from the date. SU should also provide a time stamp on these files in the “Welcome To SketchUp” window as well as the File/Open menu. ***It would be very helpful if SU actually provided access to the autosave file as TheGuz indicated in his post SketchUp Pro 2019 = Let's talk about Saving - #17 by john_drivenupthewall. I checked the timestamps and tested this–it only shows the last saved version. The “Welcome To SketchUp” window does not give access to the autosaved file.If you simply open a file with no changes, it won’t write anything there–which makes sense I guess. It appears that SU only autosaves a file if there is a change made.The path lives in a root folder called “private” which is hidden, so neither the Finder or Spotlight could find it. I’m now getting autosaves in the RecoveredFiles folder (yay!) BTW, the terminal command you suggested only gave the last half of the directory path, but I was able to find the entire path using the Ruby Console command. First of all, I restarted my Mac and ran disk utility. ![]() OK, I’ve made some progress and have some new information to report that may be helpful to some Mac users. I ended up having to rebuild my model from my last save whereas in the past I could rebuild from my last autosave. ![]() I cannot figure this out and have lost hours of time trying to find my recent autosave and then hours more trying to get an answer to this confusing issue and conflicting info from SU. It’s also odd that there’s an Autosave folder in User/Library/Application support/Sketchup 2019/Sketchup/Autosave. Why are we now talking about “recovered files” instead of backups or autosaves? And when I tried reloading a file from the Welcome To Sketchup window as directed, it loaded a file that was over an hour old–not one from within the last 5 minutes. I read this thread: SketchUp Pro 2019 = Let’s talk about Saving and it only confused me further. It’s been 20 minutes and the folder is still empty. So I quit Sketchup and restarted, then ran the Ruby command again. Where are my 5 minute autosaves going? I’m pretty sure they’re happening because I get that annoying (but understandable) pinwheel every 5 minutes while working. After working for an hour today, I used Ruby to check for current autosaves and the folder contents were unchanged from last night. skp and a ~.skp timestamped 3 minutes earlier. Using this I found two files from last night–a. But where are the 5 minute autosaves? One poster gave the following Ruby Console command: skp folder is the version prior to the last save. I understand that the ~.skp file in the same folder as the. I have backups and “auto-save every 5 minutes” both checked in preferences.
