      Hi,
      My computer crashed so I checked my Notepad++ backup folder.
      Unfortunately, it did not save the files from my last session in spite of the autosaving features well set (with time value: 7 second).

      However, other files could be found in the backup folder. These files are much older, saved at different random dates. It makes no sense the files are so random.

      Either there should be no files at all or all my previous text works should be archived in the backup folder.

      So I have two issues:

      1. Why Notepad++ didn’t save the opened tabs of my last session?
      2. Why Notepad++ backup my files so randomly?

      Thanks in advance.
