Most of the work done last night in Android Studio was no longer there,

I know I should have done a "save all" before shutting the lid, and
should be taking backups very frequently, but it still doesn't stop me
being mad at Microsoft.
Hi Bill,
I'm sorry for you on losing all your work.
It happened to me quite a few times, although for different reasons, as I
reinstalled my Android Studio and moved directories around, and changed
locations of SDKs and JDKs, etc., some of which screwed everything up.
In the future, there are a few ways to prevent that loss of all your work.
One, of course, which you found, is
AndroidStudio321:File Save All (control+s)
Another save method is to export to a zip file:
AndroidStudio321:File Export to zip file
Later, when we get good at trusting Android Studio, we can use
the built-in version-control menu system
AndroidStudio321:VCS Import into version control
A method I use a lot lately is to right click in Windows file explorer
and just zip it up whenever I want to create a checkin point, where
there is app08_a.zip, app08_b.zip, app08_c.zip, etc..
This way I can get back to where I last was if/when I screw up.
BTW, once I figured out how to port app06 (grocery list) to app08,
changing that grocery list to handle any number of items was trivial.
These are real items, at my local grocery store, where I took
pictures of what I normally buy there (i.e., the best deals).
I'm curious how the prices are with respect to yours!
o The shopping list GUI has the things I buy at this sto
