Check your Recent Menu in Livecode. If it exists, Livecode will know where it

Stack. No more problem. Also saving after compile is a great strategy as 
pointed out by Mark W as there are times when a code error will lock up the IDE 
and you have to force quit LC. You should *NEVER* have to shut down the OS 
though! That is extreme. With Windows you can use ALT-F4. If that doesn't do 
it, then open your Task Manager and force the app to quit there. On OS X, it's 
option-command-esc.

I'm a bit an*l; I save after every line of code.

Hi,

Newbie alert:

I've been working on my first project and hitting the manuals,
tutorials and such -- and then CRASH.

WIN Vista Home Premium with LiveCode 5.5.

I was in the debugger and tried to make a test button with a mouse up
line that was "copy card" -- and the dictionary or debugger froze.

Restart the computer and the whole project is gone.

I can't even find a broken icon.

Recovery?

And, why don't the other test stack show up in the folder too?

Could the work have been done in a substack and I just can't get to
it? Looking everywhere.

As I see 'recently opened' with WIN it shows a test2 LC stack that was
opened a few hours ago. BUT, when I click there it says the file can't
be found.

What do you do with your development so you don't crash and kill a day
of work? Is this to be expected?
