Autosave
WSi can automatically save your project at regular intervals, so you never lose work if the application closes unexpectedly.
Open via Settings → Client → Edit autosave configuration.
Enable Autosave
Tick the Active checkbox to turn on autosave. When enabled, WSi saves the current project to the autosave directory at the interval you specify.
Autosave Interval
Set how often WSi saves automatically:
| Value | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| 0 | Autosave disabled (even if Active is ticked) |
| 1–60 | Minutes between each automatic save |
The default interval is 5 minutes.
Maximum backup files
Set how many autosave files to keep. When the limit is reached, the oldest autosave file is deleted.
Leave the field empty for unlimited autosave files.
Storage Location
Choose where autosave files are stored. Click the folder button to open a file picker and select a directory.
Click the open button (the icon next to the folder field) to open the autosave directory in your file explorer.
Autosave files use the project name with a timestamp. They can be opened like any regular .wsi file if you need to recover work.
WARNING
Autosave files are separate from your project file. WSi does not automatically load the latest autosave on startup — you must open it manually if needed.
