> Two days ago I was working on my monthly Newsletter and there was a Power Cut, (I live in Africa!!). A couple of hours later the Power came back on and I started the Computer to carry on working. Scribus reported that the file was corrupt so I went to the Folder to bring-up the Autosave file,( have done this before and it works fine), but this time I noticed that BOTH the original file AND the Autosave file were Zero Bytes!!! Still listed but no content!! They had both been approx 30Mb.<br/>

> Now I can understand, and except, that the primary file could get "corrupt" or damaged with the Power cut but what worries me is the fact that both the Primary AND the Autosave file were taken out!! To me this is most unacceptable and should NEVER happen!!! Otherwise what is the use of the Autosave function??<br/>
