Happened after an accidental pc turn off with max still opened, so how can I fix that? Using 3ds max without autosave is a bit scarry.</P> Wed, 16 Mar 2022 15:06:40 GMT crlsmgklein1996 2022-03-16T15:06:40Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/autosave-won-t-autosave/m-p/11009112#M13280 <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screenshot_1.png" style="width: 630px;"><img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1037011i5B44A890BC6736FA/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screenshot_1.png" alt="Screenshot_1.png" /></span><BR /><BR /></P><P>Hello folks, I've a little problem, my 3ds max is unable to autosave and can't create backup files!

It's not good anyway, and in your case you probably do not have rights to change this folders without administrative&nbsp;privilege. That's why Max can't create this kind of files there.</P><P>So I suggest you to change your project folder and place it somewhere on other hard drives. Hope this will be solution for you</P> Thu, 17 Mar 2022 19:04:56 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/autosave-won-t-autosave/m-p/11012304#M13281 MaxBlum 2022-03-17T19:04:56Z
