When working in Wave Designer, the autosave function will automatically back up the waveform in a file called ‘backup.swf’ every 5 minutes. In case of a program or computer glitch, exit and restart the program, open the ‘backup.swf’ file, and use the Save As ... file menu option to save the backup file under a different file name.
