[German]Brief question in the round, if anybody has already noticed. Microsoft Office offers the Auto-Recovery of documents. However, this function is said to be a bug recently.

German blog reader David Xanatos wrote me an email a few days ago and told me the following observation.
I noticed several times that the auto-recovery function does not work reliably with Office 2019 (especially with Word). The offered file is either only the Priginal or the saved version is very old. This is really annoying, especially if you have a ToDo list in Word, you lose new entries and that is very unfavorable.
With Office 2010 this never happened, I could turn off the UPS pretty much any time (just to mention an extreme case) and after reboot I could rely on the fact that when I open Word again everything is still there.
I suspect that MSFT here has broken something on purpose so that the users use the OneDrive and then the auto-save function offered with it. It is actually a mess like that.
Whether something was broken, I can not judge. The question would be, if anybody else noticed it?
