Running Rhino 7, Autosave is going to recycle bin instead of usual folder

Hello,

I have my autosave set to the usual C:\Users\rbaltera\AppData\Local\McNeel\Rhinoceros\7.0\AutoSave\RhinoAutosave.3dm
Unfortunately they keep on going to the recycle bin.
What’s the trick to make sure they go to correct folder?

Please feel free to contact me at
rudolf.baltera@tiffany.com or

Thank you!
Best,
Rudy

When Rhino deletes them to make a new autosave file, the deleted one goes to the Recycle Bin.
That is a HUGE safety net in the event the current autosave file is not there or damaged. Then you have a previous file you can Restore, Rename, and Open to recover your work.

Hello John,
Thanks for the expedient response, its much appreciated.
We love Rhino!

While this is a nifty feature, and one that I do use, you can turn it off if you don’t want it.

Go to tools/options/advanced and search for “recycle” and uncheck it.
