    I too set it for one minute. I'd prefer not to lose more than a minute's
work 
    after the power goes off when my excavation-challenge neighbor digs up 
    another power line.

Yes.... the autosave feature is great.   I always set it to one minute for
everybody.   The problem is getting people to understand how it works, and
how to actually recover from autosave.   Aside from that, I like it.

 

Agree about the text-edit thing too.... that has been a bug for as long as I
can remember.

I believe autosave is useful, and can save your bacon . I believe we have it
set to five minutes (default), and it runs behind the scenes. Only issue is
sometimes while editing text, it kicks in and the autosave text appears
where text was being edited.

 

This feature should not be confused with daily backup.

No - that is the first place I looked.

 

Is there any good reason to keep the autosave feature of Arris? It had a
raison d'etre a long time ago, but I don't see any virtue in it now. Saving
/ backing up should be an integral part of computer-based work, and with
flash drives, one can save anywhere, anytime inexpensively.

And if not, .sv files might still exist in the autosave directory.
