    Unless you save too often and the file was in the middle of saving or loading something and the file corrupts. :)

      I’ve never seen that, and not sure how any system could be so badly designed to permit this.

      And I’ve been using systems since DOS 1.1 (and punched cards before that).

        Unless i’m wrong and the files got corrupted because of something else, it happened to me in the 3D software Sketchup, in indesign, illustrator and acrobat. Acrobat is by far the worst offender. PDFs are just unstable messes in general when trying to work on them.

        That happened to me with a word 2011 version. I sent my work file for corrections to my companion, we sat together and worked together through the errors. Several hours later, we saved, and immediatly closed the window. BAM! corrupted file. That was not a good day. We all love microsoft right?
