TODO: Update locations for all platforms based on Re: Emergency save could need testing
When Inkscape crashes, it tries to save the document as a backup with following name:
<filename>.<datetime>.#
If the document has not been saved yet, the name is:
inkscape-emergency.<datetime>.#
Note, that there is no .svg file name ending.
On Unix (Linux, Mac OS X, *BSD, etc.)
Inkscape tries to save in the following paths:
- Home directory (
~/,$HOME,/home/<username>/) /tmp/- In the current working directory
(in that order).
On Windows
Inkscape tries to save in %UserProfile%:
- XP/2003:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\ - Vista/7:
C:\Users\<username>\
