Jon,
I have no experience of Macs, so I am of little assistance if any.
Have you tried to delete autosav1.tmp (it may be locked by the system
making rewrites impossible)?
Another idea: if autosave does not work for you, could you or someone
else devise a cron job within the Mac OS to handle this? E.g. see

Best regards,

I appreciate you for responding, Kari, but nothing works. Autosav1.tmp
is still an ancient file. Something I didn't store yesterday
disappeared, though luckily I had uploaded it elsewhere.
Settings.dfl, even after multiple restarts, includes:
df BK=1
DF AOP=C:\XY4\XY (which is where settings.dfl and all newly written
files are located, according to XY command line)
DF AOT=3,10
I've lost a couple of things so this is as worrying as it is baffling. I
think it's an interaction between XY4 and DosBox-X but I don't know
what's going on.
Jon P.
