Autosave
When working in CET Designer, your work is auto-saved periodically while in progress, even if you have not given the drawing a name. This makes it possible to recover unnamed as well as named files.
By default, CET Designer autosaves every drawing with a 9 minute interval and keeps 5 of the autosaved files. On the Control Panel’s Security tab, you can disable autosave, or change the number of files to save or the time between saves. To prevent data loss, we recommend that the autosave feature remains enabled.
Autosaved files are normally saved to a sub-folder in the same location as your drawing.
C:\Users\[YourUserName]\Documents\CET Documents\autosave
Backups
CET Designer automatically makes backups of your drawing on certain occasions, for example if choose to exit the program without saving your changes. This makes it possible for you to recover lost files.
By default, CET Designer keeps 8 backups per drawing. On the Control Panel’s Security tab, you can disable auto backup, or change the number of backups to save. To prevent data loss, we recommend that the auto backup feature remains enabled.
Backups are normally saved to the same location as your drawing,
C:\Users\[YourUserName]\Documents\CET Documents\_CETBackups
Recover unsaved drawings
CET Designer will automatically check for partially saved files at start up. If something went wrong during the saving process of a drawing or if the program crashed, an alert will be shown. The alert will show unsaved drawings if any are found.
1. You can choose to Recover or Discard a drawing.
2. If you choose to Recover a drawing, two options are available:
You can either Open the recovered drawing with CET Designer or choose to show the drawing in its source folder with the Show in folder button.
