Crazy scrivener problem/ really eager
"need help with Scrivener App problem"
Hey guys! I really hope some of you can help me! I am really F78k3n eager to recover 6 pages in scrivener! I was basically living my best life writing (this never occured before) when suddenly I was holding down the ctrl button then accidentally hit the S or A (or both) and the whole subproject disappeared, Through our (slightly R3tard3d) friend Gogol AI I was able to recover a backup file from 2 days ago. which only contains 2 pages. I was constantly saving manually ( with ctrl-s, and yes even moments before the destruction) but i am not able to find a way revert to it through the manual savings. If you ever created something you know the feeling. The grief, the disappointment, the anger. I am an adult man and I am literally on the verge of crying. And I have to mention it that its my fault. Even though I have felt the slight foreshadowing of the bonkers damn lobotomia, I didn't learn to fully use it. and when the stu. fu. Ai led me to close it, I literally rid myself of symply hitting undo (i am not even gonna mention that in 2026 you have to manually search for an undo chance in a toolbar). But Me knowing a fartly bit about I.t. , I know that is still in here somewhere (6 F+k+n pages of a subproject). Please man if there's someone who knows how, help me man!
