Powerdesigner crashed and I can't find my files. Under General Options > General I set "Save recovery backup file" to every 5 minutes but cannot find any recovery file.

In my test, I saw a directory created as C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\PowerDesigner\16.7\AutoSaveFolder\.

After shooting, and restarting PowerDesigner, I got a confirmation dialog:

---------------------------
Restore Recovery Backup File
---------------------------
A previous PowerDesigner session exited abnormally.

Do you want to restore the backup file?
---------------------------
Yes   No   
---------------------------

According to the documentation, this applies to "all open models". And in my test, nothing happened for a new model, until I had saved it once.
