Autosave did not autosave

After working for two hours on a project, my laptop crashed. Although set to autosave every five minutes, there was no autosave dialog upon restarting Dorico. I have searched where the autosave file should be but do not see anything there after a save about 2 hours prior. Is all of my work lost, or am I missing something?

On Windows, the AutoSave folder is found here… (You may need to show hidden folders in File Explorer)

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Steinberg\Dorico 5

A place you certainly explored is:

@sherylneal1, take a look in your Trash (macOS) or Recycle Bin (Windows). Any back-up or auto-save files that Dorico has deleted are moved to the trash rather than deleted outright, so you may well find backups and/or auto-saves in there.

Thank you all for your quick replies! I did find files in the recycle bin, and the autosave feature is now working properly, after I went in and adjusted some of the settings.
