I have Acrobat X set to autosave every 5 mins. It just crashed, but when I reopened the program, it did not prompt me to recover the autosaved file. Where is it? Can I open it manually?

Here is the location for the AutoSave Folder on Win XP : C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\AutoSave

                                                                    Win 7 : C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\AutoSave\

No, you cannot open the tmp folder. File is folder gets deleted automatically once you close Acrobat.

Probably, you can set less time for AutoSave so if incase, Acrobat crashes, you lose minimum data.

Hi Deepak,

Yesterday I was working on Adobe Reader XI file and I had some annotations on that (Which are soo important for me) but nevertheless I closed the file by mistake without saving. As you suggested above I checked the

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0 but I don't see autosave folder there although I have the option to auto-save the document to a temporary file every 5 minutes was already turned on. I have 2 dat files in security folder which have the exact same date that i closed the file without saving. I am not sure if those are the one I look for. If yes I do not know how to open the dat file.

I have attached 2 snapshots. Could you please review them and help mw with this issue.

Thanks,

Best regards,

Gamze.

Hi,

If you are using Reader then the location would C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Reader\11.0. I followed your steps and an AutoSave folder was automatically created under the mentioned hive. I would also recommend to use the latest Reader/ Acrobat version.
