Sure . It only happens when windows does it automatic crap, even though
my machine is "no longer eligible for updates" MS still does something LOL
There is an error when I go to start up and open my file.
And then I find that the last updates to different accounts (if I forgot
to "Save" manually and left the application running) I made are missing.

I am doubting that it isn’t saving even though you have it set to do so.

I have it set to autosave and apparantly it ISNT autosaving.....its not just
one transaction that gets lost...its a bunch, which were done during my last
session (if I did not manually save it).

I have the pre-build binaries of the 4.14 version running on Windows
and it auto saves as well. If anything it would only be the current
in-flight transaction not saved.

I'm still using a built-from-source 4.14, and the auto-save does in
fact save the file.

I don't use this feature, but the documentation very clearly states:
"Auto-save time interval: This field sets the number of minutes
between
each automatic saving of the file. Set to 0 to disable the auto-save
feature."
This (and the name of the preference) would strongly suggest that the
feature is supposed to, ahem, *save* the file in question, and not
just toss up a reminder.
But, I'm sure I've misread things.

iirc, auto save is only a reminder, not an action. However, you
should be able to import transactions entered after the last manual
save using the replay logs feature.
