Because I couldn't rely on AE's autosave feature and lost a few projects, I created a while back a simple script which saves the project and then it duplicates the file in the same location, adding a prefix to it's name. You have the option for how many back-ups to keep and what prefix it should use. So, instead of regularly hitting ctrl/cmd + s I just press a button in the script's interface for more than a year now and never lost a project since. Yesterday had a BSOD and again the original .aep with it's back-up file got corrupted but I had a previous back-up file so I only lost a couple of minutes of work. Set it to do at least 3 back-ups and you should be fine (I'm doing 5). Copy the .jsxbin to '.../Support files/Scripts/ScriptUI Panels', launch it from 'Window/BackupAE_v1.0.0', dock it and smash that blue button. I'll probably share it soon on aescripts too as 'pay what you want' along with a couple of other (helpful, hopefully) scripts and extensions. BackupAE_v1.0.0: bit.ly/BackupAE Cheers, Alex Munteanu
