Just had a coworker realize that his autosave was = not functioning correctly.

While Adobe states:

 

" <= span style=3D"font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans= -serif";mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:#333= 333;background:white">When the number of versions saved reaches the maximum you specify, the Auto-Sav= e feature overwrites them starting with the oldest file.” 

 

T= hat was not the case here.  When he reached his limit it just stopped, it= did not continue by overwriting the oldest one.  Is this a known issu= e?  I have since asked him to bump up the limit to something more= than the default.

Thanks
