I'm having a problem getting Revit to save back-up files of my local files.  When I'm the only user and we haven't created worksets, it creates plenty of backups, but once we set up worksets and start working from a local file, it creates a folder called (jobname)_backup, but no actual backup files.  Is there a setting I'm missing?  Thanks!

How are you accessing the backups?  Backups are best accessed through File-->Backups... then selecting the appropriate file and a list of backups should display allowing you the option to rollback.

HTH.

Thanks!  I guess I missed that.  Since all of the other files create a .001, .002 type extention, I thought it was the same thing.  Have a nice day! :o)
