The 2010 Save: Accident Prevention
You’re on the way out the door. You need to shut down your computer first, and there are 15 different applications open. You press the power button, and a couple of the open applications remind you that your work hasn’t been saved yet. You have the option to “Save” or “Don’t Save.” You are moving quickly, and in the heat of the moment you accidently click “Don’t Save.”
5 milliseconds later you’re breathing in through your teeth and clenching your fist, wishing you just looked at the document first before throwing away all the edits you made on the presentation you are rushing to deliver. Oops.
The new version of Office has built-in protection for scenarios like this. Even if you “Don’t Save,” we keep an easily accessible draft version around for a few days. In the case that you pressed the wrong button, all your information is just a few clicks away.
Take a deep breath. We got your back.
