Even though SaveAllTheTime works quite well for me. It's probably worth a shot to integrate the autosave functionality into BuildOnSave, too.

I've decided to try to start fixing related problems in SaveAllTheTime instead. Let's see how this progresses.

The issue I am having is that SaveAllTheTime sometimes doesn't save the same file it saved successfully earlier. It's not an all or nothing issue. I also do not know how to debug a VS extension while working in VS. If it's quick to learn, I can spend some time learning it.

A good start would be to take a look into the log files after it failed to save a file, and/or compile a debug version. On my machine, they are stored at C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\SaveAllTheTime. Also increasing the default debug level to Trace may help: https://github.com/paulcbetts/SaveAllTheTime/blob/master/SaveAllTheTime/NLog.dll.nlog

Since I am working on a small web project, I've also experienced that problem and - hopefully - fixed another bug, that caused SATT to stop autosaving files: https://github.com/pragmatrix/SaveAllTheTime/releases/tag/1.4.0.3
