I'm still zoned out from a colonoscopy I had earlier today... damned fentanyl sedative.
While I was prepping my numbers and plots for Monday morning, I accidentally 'X' out of the control panel and selected NO to saving my work.
I usually save routinely along the way but now I'm stuck at the mini dialogue box that asks if I want to 'run a backup now?'
Can I somehow keep this open and save all my work?
Many thanks

UPDATE:
There isn't a way out.
I owned my fogged-out bonehead move, I shut it down and started all over again, but an autosave feature would be helpful, as there is SOMEHOW no UNDO feature in this microsoft-inspired-over-engineered mess. Read my lips NT: LESS-IS-MORE. That, and, "Perfection is NOT achieved when there is nothing left to add; perfection is achieved when there is nothing left to remove and still have a system work flawlessly. Do you understand this? It doesn't seem like it.
And, dear reader, if you disagree with that "over-engineered" sentiment, take a look at what it takes to simply set an alert on anything, or change the size of a font, or change the color of something... sweet Jesus, REALLY?
Again, I fully accept that I screwed up, but I would be doing a disservice to all the many thousands of NT8 traders out there if I didn't mention the difficulties I've suddenly had this year with the platform.
While we all appreciate the challenges NT coders must have faced and are still facing by integrating Tradovate and bringing us a mobile platform, and a consolidation of services via portal, you need to GET IT TOGETHER for the many loyal trader/customers who have been with you since the very beginning. You can start (the list of bugs, breaks, and logically-badly needed changes is very long) with the Trade Performance window NOT WORKING AT ALL. c'mon guys... NT Manager and Directors: staff up, caffeinate up, tighten up!
For years I have engaged in gentle nudging, wishlist creating, helpfully suggesting...
WELL, THOSE DAYS ARE OVER WITH.
I'm going hard core and very public with my displeasure until you simplify and fix the myriad ongoing problems --some of them brand new-- that must be fixed, now!
