I mean…isn’t this something Word does well?

It continuously autosaves to a temp document, so if it crashes, next startup it finds the autosave and presents it as an option to you.

Like, I’m all for criticizing Word, but pick truthful critiques. Its Find bar has a broken scroll, the OneDrive sync feature often crashes silently, and half its menus are stuck in 1999.

Your documents have been lost because the crash was related to OneDrive sync.

All documents that were synced with OneDrive ^[i.e. your whole computer, because you have no HDD and OneDrive is your secondary memory] have been lost.

Your banking information was saved on the same location as other OneDrive data and your browsing and recall history, right next to its decryption keys (only you didn’t get to see the rest), so your account got emptied too.

The crash was caused due to Edge crashing on the server. Other services, such as the parental controls for your children’s Neuralinks were dependent on Edge on that server and the crash caused high intensity feedback in your children’s brains, invoking blinding rage and causing them to brutally murder each other.

A friendly reminder. Microsoft Products’ error messages stopped explicitly mentioning OneDrive, ever since they stopped saving data to your local secondary memory in favour of their cloud servers.
