Hi Amanda,
Sorry you've had such trouble with this. Have you checked after a crash to see if the files are in your temp folders?
Here's how to check:
1. Open this folder in Windows Explorer:
Tueppdata%\Articulate\Storyline
2. Scan the contents of this folder for a file that starts with the name of your project. If you find one, copy it to your desktop. If you find more than one, copy the latest version to your desktop.
3. Change the file extension of the copy on your desktop from *.tmp to *.story.
4. Double-click the file to open it in Storyline.
Our team looked into an autosave feature some time ago, and it was determined that saving content and determining when something should be saved should be in the hands of the author, not something we implement, it can also lead to a performance slow down if it's constantly saving in the background. The auto recovery feature was put in place so that if something happened with Storyline, it would allow you to resume working where you left off. That's a feature that you'll need to enable, and it will only take effect after your first manual save.
