I've been working on a program for the last two weeks and just accidentally deleted it. There doesn't appear to be any kind of recycle bin in SAS Studio (which is completely blowing my mind, but that's another issue altogether).</P> Sat, 13 Jul 2024 18:25:59 GMT scottyoung77 2024-07-13T18:25:59Z How to recover an accidentally deleted SAS program in SAS Studio (OnDemand for Academics)? https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Software-for-Learning/How-to-recover-an-accidentally-deleted-SAS-program-in-SAS-Studio/m-p/935712#M1978 <P>Oh good God, please tell me there's a way to recover an accidentally deleted SAS program in SAS Studio.

I actually wound up rebuilding the file (which went quicker since I'd been working on the original for two weeks), but it still took me 5 hours.<BR /><BR />Can't believe there's no recycle bin option here...&nbsp;<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":hushed_face:">šŸ˜Æ</span>&nbsp;<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":crying_face:">šŸ˜¢</span>&nbsp;<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":face_with_steam_from_nose:">šŸ˜¤</span>&nbsp;<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":zipper_mouth_face:">šŸ¤</span></P> Sun, 14 Jul 2024 23:57:39 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Software-for-Learning/How-to-recover-an-accidentally-deleted-SAS-program-in-SAS-Studio/m-p/935761#M1980 scottyoung77 2024-07-14T23:57:39Z Re: How to recover an accidentally deleted SAS program in SAS Studio (OnDemand for Academics)? https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Software-for-Learning/How-to-recover-an-accidentally-deleted-SAS-program-in-SAS-Studio/m-p/935762#M1981 <P>There is an <A href="https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/sasstudiocdc/3.8/webeditorcdc/webeditorug/n1in5pr04ok3c7n1dzph7bjuqop9.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Autosave option</A> in SAS Studio. However I think that only deals with unsaved programs. If you deliberately delete a program, then that is where version control software can save your bacon. I'm not sure if you can hook up SODA to Github though as that would definitely solve your problem.</P> Mon, 15 Jul 2024 04:32:38 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Software-for-Learning/How-to-recover-an-accidentally-deleted-SAS-program-in-SAS-Studio/m-p/935762#M1981 SASKiwi 2024-07-15T04:32:38Z
