'Each new update of Illustrator, auto save gets automatically turned off!' has been merged into this idea

Autosave disables itself

Windows 10, AI CC (latest release)

Autosave disables itself. When AI crashes - as it does - I get nothing.

I set auto-save for every 2 minutes in preferences. Then, after Illustrator crashes, I go back in to preferences to find it has unchecked that option. Nothing. I lose a load of work.

There are no expletives for how I feel about this. PLEASE sort it out?

:(

    When updating illustrator, the users selection of "Automatically Save Recovery Data Every" will be unchecked regardless of users previous setting.

    Yes, this is incredibly annoying. Just lost a load of work when illustrator crashed (which is a regular occurrence these days) because I'd updated the program recently and the new update turned off auto update when it's always been on. Why? Aren't settings supposed to be transferred from one update to another?

    Even though it should import all previous settings (box check).
    It doesn't import this particular setting.
    Could you please fix this?
