View Full Version : Can UR alert user docs are edited externally before closing it?

Often times, I use ctrl+j to open office docs externally for editing. Is there away to have UR alert me so I do not close it without closing these docs first.

Few times I ended up loosing some work as a result.

Thanks

There isn't, but even if you save externally after closing UR, UR will update the stored document from the saved temporary copy on restart, so it would not be easy to lose work. You could create a scheduled task to periodically copy %TEMP%\UltraRecall somewhere so that you always have a copy of the latest external edits.

Thanks.
It'll be nice if this is offered to users as an option to enable. I ended up putting a macro script to prevent UR from closing if there are external docs open. Not a user-friendly way, probably, for most.

Please consider this a feature request for next release of UR :)

Thank you
