  Hello! I was done writing my blog when suddenly my computer system restarted. I lost all my writing at once. But I suppose there’s some autosave option which saves data every 2 minutes, right? Is there a way I can retrieve it all? I desperately need it back please. Help me with this. Can I access that autosave data?

  Hi there!

  Sorry to hear that but were you working on a post or a page?

  Yes, WordPress.com has an autosave feature where the changes you make to a post or page are automatically saved every 2 minutes.

  Here’s a helpful article on that:

  You can check the Revisions screen that shows backup copies of your posts and pages by opening that particular post or page and click Browse beside Revisions on the Publish module.

  Here are helpful articles on how to do that:
