As for reproducing: I can more or less force this on two Win8 64, ssd machines with atomic save on. The loss is always preceded by the MoveEx error (win64 api locks presumably lingers and ST doesn’t check for that). Hence, a prerequisite to reproduce this bug is to get the locked error (which a few people have reported) which on two of my machines is very easy - just keep ctrl+s pressed for for a couple of seconds on a medium-sized file.
Anti-virus/backup/etc off during tests (one machine a clean win64 install with only sublime and clang installed)[/quote]
Thanks for getting back on this. Is it a C or C++ file that you see this on, or will it occur with any type of file? What is a “medium” file to you? A few hundred lines, a few thousand, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions? Which version of Sublime? Are you using any plugins in Sublime?
The reason I’m asking all this is, I’m on a windows 8.1 64 bit ultrabook (Lenovo yoga2 pro) with an ssd, 8 GB ram, and a core i7 processor, SublimeText 3 build 3062, no clang, but I do have mingw installed, Anti-virus running (avast). On this particular installation, I have Anaconda, Evernote, InsertDate, Keymaps, Markdown Preview, MarkdownEditing, PlainTasks, Predawn, Theme - Afterglow, Theme - Flatland, and Vintageous plugins installed. I generated a sublime-settings file that was 350k lines (copy and paste the default settings file into a new file multiple times), and pressed and held ctrl+s for more than 10 seconds and had no issue, so there may be something I’m missing in my set up.
Thanks again.
