Yes, until its somehow automatically deleted during a syncing error and than you’re fucked.
Comment on Modern Windows in a nutshell
TheProtagonist@lemmy.world 13 hours agoIsn’t everything being saved automatically anyway, when you work in the cloud (i.e. SharePoint)?

It's being saved, but not for you.

Libreoffice does this without forcing you to allow them to store all of your files. Because it’s a feature that doesn’t rely on any kind of cloud bs, MS just added that requirement because they are assholes that have no respect for their users.

I have to use Power BI for my job and it does automatically saves until it’s been open too long and then it stops automatically saving and also won’t let you manually save. Then you have to do a Save As for some reason, close every open PBI file, and reopen them, which takes approximately 3-5 business days.

MS disabled the auto-save function for anything on a local disk, which is necessary for me because I use *gasp* version control software.

If you turn off a few of Microsoft’s more insane tracking in the privacy settings, it disables the autosave “feature”. The autosave fucked up version tracking badly enough that it was nice to have a global kill button.
I have found that turning off most new “features” that Microsoft makes recently is usually for the best.

Makes sense. You wouldn’t want to hammer that file onto disk every second.
