The complied file (with changes made) is not auto saved (even though selected). Also after changes are made, and save or save as is selected, the changes are not saved to the HD. Can exit beta 2.0 and re-load, and the original file is loaded without the changes that were made.

It sounds like this bug:
opened 08:11AM - 02 Apr 21 UTC
closed 03:44PM - 14 Apr 21 UTC
priority: high
conclusion: resolved
topic: code
type: imperfection
**Describe the bug**
If I need to add files to my Sketch I need quickly find th… e folder and see my files,
but the **Sketch > Show Sketch Folder** opens the temporary directory, hence every change is lost.
i.e.: the **Recent** submenu does not update with the open Sketch
This only seems to happen when Sketch is open via **File > Sketchbook**.
The same file reports the correct absolute path if open via **File > Open**
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Open a pre-existing Sketch (or save a new one)
2. Click on **Sketch > Show Sketch Folder**
3. Look at the containing tree
4. You will see that you got directed to the temporary folder, not to the one inside the Sketchbook
5. This seems to also prevent the **File > Open Recent ** not to have updated content even after a restart
**Expected behavior**
Pointing to the content of my Sketch inside the Sketchbook folder and having the **File > Open Recent** correctly show the file I last opened.
