How to Turn Off the Auto-Save in "Corel Draw"
If you've ever accidentally closed your graphics program after spending hours tweaking an image, you know how valuable an auto-save feature can be. By default, CorelDRAW automatically saves the images you're editing every 20 minutes. In most circumstances, it's a useful feature, but there may be times when you want to disable the feature. For example, if you're altering an image to create an alternate version, you wouldn't want the auto-save to overwrite the original. CorelDRAW allows you to disable the auto-save feature in the program's Options menu.
