Symptom
Whilst editing a note, the note ‘disappears’/closes and is then not visible in the explorer or in the directory where it was being stored.
It has not been deleted as nothing is in both MacBook trash or iCloud trash (where I’m storing the .md files).
Originally, the original set ‘disappearances’ meant nothing could be recovered but then for ‘reasons unknown’ all of the ‘lost’ notes reappeared in the directory with multiple versions but with the content when ‘lost’.
Below is the one of the folders I was using when I experienced several of these issues which shows all the files after they ‘re-appeared’ creating new versions of the files with the content when they disappeared.
I have now lost a note which contains so rather more important information than my daily notes so I’d like to understand how I can recover as described above if possible.
Steps to reproduce
I cannot reproduce as I do not know what combination of keystrokes is causing this.
This could be user error but I receive no warning and, to me, I am simply editing the note.
Expected result
Not to have my note ‘disappear’.
Actual result
Note disappears.
