Alberto, please give us a link to your huge file
Comment 2 Alberto Salvia Novella 2019-12-08 15:31:33 UTC

Endless auto-save: Data lost:

Once I regenerate it using a copy I have on Google Drive I will post it here for a month time.

Try copying the contents of the file four times within it, so it simulates the original file size.

My storage drive died three months later. With the new one it doesn't happen.
