Updating to the latest version of animate just deleted a month of work

I just updated to animate 2023 in an attempt to get a plugin working. i ended up closing the program last night as i normally do , but when i opened it this morning, the 2000 frames i had previously done are all gone, i have the recovery file open, the previous save and the *current* save, all versions are missing all my work. What's the point of being slowed down by laggy autosaves if they're not going to save anything

Edit:  I found the file, thanks to filehistory, but running a few scans i found that animate did in fact roll back all my changes for some reason. I wish i could say this is the first time i've experienced something like this but it's not. Please for the love of god if you're a new animator and thinking about using the adobe suites for your projects, just use toonboom or opentoon instead, it's not worth it and once you've gotten far enough into your animation you're locked in, there are no conversion options availible to make it easy to transfer over. And for the rest of you? Make sure you have secondary backup systems in place.

I haven't noticed any saving bugs on the latest release. What are your system specs? Are you saving manually and naming your files or are you saving on top of recovery files? Do you have your old version still? If so does the previous save open there? Can you reproduce the steps to verify?

or just learn to save your fla's periodically with increasing version numbers appended.
