    Automatically Reverting to previous versions


    Hey,

    I just got a new computer at work here no more than 2 1/2 weeks ago. I was working yesterday on some local files, in a particular folder and when i came in today, all my changes were gone. I opened up the folder properties and checked the previous version it automatically creates overnight and all of the changes i had saved yesterday are in the previous version but not in the real time folder, WTF. All the drivers are installed, windows is fully updated, no third party backup software on it.

    Hi Dr Stereo and Welcome to SevenForums.

    Since this is a work computer, let me recommend that you consult with your local system administrator.

    We've had similar problems around the office since we upgraded and their position is that its user related. I double as a 'Systems Administrator' around the office so you can direct your suggestions to me.
