Autosave won't autosave

[crlsmgklein1996]

Hello folks, I've a little problem, my 3ds max is unable to autosave and can't create backup files! 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.

Hi

Looks like you have your project folder located C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2021. It's not good anyway, and in your case you probably do not have rights to change this folders without administrative privilege. That's why Max can't create this kind of files there.

So I suggest you to change your project folder and place it somewhere on other hard drives. Hope this will be solution for you
