I've not seen that ever happen to me. You check it to make sure it is still on never? Some settings revert to default for some reason, although default for me is never.
You have been lucky if you have never had that happen to you. It isn't a big deal, it just annoys me to see extra save files show up in my list of saves. I always set the auto save to never, but I will still get an auto save file at random times. And I do mean random. I could play for a few days and everything is normal, then next time I play for a bit, I will get an auto save file stuck in the save list.

I could fire the game up, craft some junk, get plowed by a few random monsters, quit the game and every thing plays nice, next time I fire the game up, same process with the addition of entering a dungeon or two and I get a pile of quick save files and occasionally the game will slip an auto save in there as well.

The only thing I can think of is that the game is auto saving whenever I enter a dungeon (or just start the game to check/test something) and then quit back to the main menu or just exit the game.

Dunno what's going on and it isn't a big deal and isn't crashing the game or anything like that, it is just an annoying little thing that randomly happens.

That is interesting. I do get autosaves from rezoning in and out of dungeons or the tower and also from exiting the game. But I haven't ever had the random save freeze while playing normally. I guess I should be thankful that hasn't happened. I wipe all saves except my character saves frequently because it seems it helps reduce the saving/freezing time. It starts to get long the more they build up it seems.

I've noticed that even if I set autosaves to 'never' (or "newer" because there's a typo), it still autosaves anyways sometimes. What's the point of setting autosaves to 'never' if it means there will still be autosaves! :LUL:
HA- I never thought the autosave "newer" was a typo, it's my setting and have always been puzzled

I have this happen, certain actions seem to trigger no matter what and occasionally a get an autosave with weird no-date (something like 1900 or whatever, can't recall specifically but obvious date error)
