Brandon here back with another new 2 minute tuesday!

In todays video we take a look at how exactly to find and open the different backup and autosave files within AutoCAD.

I walk through how to set the autosave interval within autocad along with where the files will be saved by default and how to change the location if needed.

After that we take a look at autoCAD backup files (.bak) and how to find and open them as well!

Oh and let me know what autocad tip, trick or tutorial you'd like to see in the next one down below!

Cheers and thanks for watching
