autorecover location for linqpad


Where do the autorecover files get saved for linqpad? I lost some queries, and like SSMS, I'm hoping the files are still there, but the autorecover is just not pulling them up for some reason when I start up linqpad.

Alternatively, does linqpad compile to a temporary location? I could recover my work by decompiling the query.


Solution

  • LINQPad's autorecover location is %temp%\LINQPad5

    Under there, there are subfolders prefixed with an underscore for each active session. Inside the subfolders is a file with a .autosave extension. The query assemblies are also stored in there.
