I was working in Arduino IDE 2.3.2 last night and got tired so I left the IDE Open with my sketch. When I got back to the IDE today I noticed the sketch tab is gone. Image Below. Windows 10 Pro PC/Laptop.
The sketch is no longer there. I was using the IDE with Teensy but I've had this problem before regardless of microcontroller. I use CCleaner Professional to clean up files and have it set to clean automatically, I am "Assuming" CCleaner is the culprit and I may need to add some Arduino IDE folders/files to my exclusion list within CCleaners Options. Does/did anyone have a similar issue or is this a completely different issue.
Regardless, just to be safe, is there a list of folder/files I can tell CCleaner to stay away from on Windows 10 Pro installations. I think the app is cleaning a cache folder the IDE may use. I know a few locations Arduino IDE uses but I don't have a full list I can tell CCleaner not to touch.
Thank you in advance
Jorge
