But if you shut down the machine before it has ended all the processes,
don't expect any application to do better.
But I think we know how
to solve, or at least reduce problem #2. The trick is to reduce the
"window of vulnerability" for total loss by saving initially to a
temporary file, and only after the file is completely saved then
rename it. Since an OS-level rename operation is lighting fast, you
reduce your risk. And if power does go out during the rename
operation, modern OS's will know enough to rollback the file names so
you still have your temporary file in place. Then the app can check
for any temporary files when it loads and offer to restore them.
Whats about the implemented 'AutoRecovery information'. It saves all
information to recover files after a crash. AFAIK these information will
be deleted after the files are completely saved.
IMHO its needful to set the recovery time shorter than default.
AFAIK, the automatic backup was replaced by this function.
