Usually my posts are automatically saved as I enter them so I can then retrieve them if a problem is encountered while in progress (and this has worked great in the past). However, this did not happen this time. Is there any way I might retrieve my post in progress or will I have to start over from scratch? Very frustrating!

Thanks for your assistance and advice in advance.
Unfortunately after testing, it is lost. This looks like the Auto-Save feature is not working and I have told tech to re-enable.

I'm getting a button that allows me to restore what I wrote in a previous editor. Are you not seeing the same as below? Tech said it should auto-save after 60sec/1min. If not, what browser/device are you on? (P.S. I asked if there was anyway they could get me your lengthy content back).
