Heart-breaking saving bug Posted: 2011-07-06 00:23

I got a bug with 3.7 beta 0.

After I'm done tracking and I save my file, when I open it back again it's empty.

Completely empty. Not even the instruments are there.

(Not to mention the file tends to weigh like, 1 KB when I go back to check.)

It's a random issue, and I'm not able to reproduce it most of the time.

Routine check: are you positive the empty file you opened was the same one you had saved, and not another location/version? What does the "last modified" field in the file's properties read? Does it match the time when you past saved?

I only saved the file once, through the Save As command.

Yeah, I tracked a whole song without saving it midway. Silly me.

And yes, it does match the time.

That sucks. I haven't seen this problem before, and have no idea what went wrong. There should be an error message if the save process fails or if you try to load a broken file, I've never seen just an empty file before.

I think someone else presented this problem with 0.3.6 beta.
