FCS Express can automatically create a backup of your layout, known as an Auto Recovery file. By default, an Auto Recovery file will be created every 5 minutes. As a user option, you can turn off this feature, or change the interval between autosaves, by editing the Save page of the User Options dialog. If FCS Express is terminated suddenly, and before the layout could be saved, then the next time you start the program, you will be asked if you want to resume using the AutoSaved file, which will have been given a unique name so as not to overwrite the previous user-saved file.
