When AutoSave is enabled, the switch will display the label On.
Disable AutoSave
To disable AutoSave, click the AutoSave switch in the Bizagi Modeler Toolbar.
Then, click the Turn off button in the confirmation window.
When AutoSave is disabled, the switch will display the label Off.

If the AutoSave process encounters an error, the Save icon will change as follows:
In case of failure, AutoSave will attempt to run up to three times. If it still fails, an informational message will appear at the top of the menu, allowing you to manually Save As to another location. Additionally, AutoSave will be disabled until further action is taken.

Modify the Time Interval
By default, AutoSave runs every one minute after being enabled. You can modify this interval by adding the following key in the BizagiModeler.exe..config file, located in the C:\Users\{User}\AppData\Local\Programs\Bizagi\Bizagi Modeler route and changing the value field to the desired number of minutes in the following tag:
<add key="MinutesToRunAutoSave" value="1" />
