Backup & Restore

Question

We find that Visual Studio often freezes when our code is stored on a network drive. Switching to a local drive fixed this.

However, now we use Modeller, it saves recovery information until

H: \ Visual Studio 2012 \ Backup Files

and there is no way to change that.

As a result, it often hangs with "Saving Automatic Recovery Information." In the end, it ends, but it takes a few minutes.

Our network drives work fine for other programs, etc.

Has anyone else seen this and found a solution? Is location a registry setting?

Answer 1

Go to Tools → Options → Environment → Auto Restore. Here you will find information about AutoRecover every 5 minutes, respectively, according to your needs.
