Is it possible to recover unsaved edits? Auto-saving was on all the time. #346

I recently encountered a system crash and lost a lot of my edits on this one file. After reboot I re-opened the file and found that all of my edits on it were gone although I had auto-saving setting turned on all the time. Are there any way to recover the unsaved edits? I looked into the cache files and found nothing.

I'm really sorry if you lost data because of Abricotine. It is obviously a bug with auto save, I didn't know about it. I don't think you can recover your data if it had not been saved.

As explained in #310 I haven't had the time to work on this program for years. I now see that this can lead to data loss, which is a serious concern. This is why I have decided to announce the discontinuation of the program today.

So please don't use Abricotine anymore.

I should have done this before. Once again, please accept my apologies for this.
