Forgetting Chat History Even When Saved

I am saving all my prompts to my Google Drive and I have auto saving enabled. Despite that, when I lock my computer and come back to it, sometimes the AI Studio forgets the most recent chat history. It is rolled back to hours or sometimes even days before.

I have been experiencing the same issue this week. After 1,5 hours of work lost I decided to start making copies of my prompts / answers in a google doc to keep them safe. Please address this issue, it will save me a lot of time.

My suspicion is that it is an issure related to autosaving + google drive version control. I checked version management on the drive file, and saw it stopped working after 100 revisions.

It says it should start removing the oldest versions after 100 are saved, but I think the opposite is happening : no more new versions are saved.

Iā€™m trying to solve the issue temporarily myself by switching of autosave in the settings at aistudio, and see if I can remember saving. I just checked : manually saving also adds up to the number of revisions, but this will not reach 100 anytime soon / as qucik as with the autosave functionality.

There may also be an issue if there is more than one window open with a chat. The second window without the most recent history overwrites the newer if that is activated.

Hey Everyone,

Thanks for flagging. Yeah, there might be issue related to google drive api limit while saving. I have already escalated this with the internal team.

Thanks
