LONG time Cake user here but just started having a strange bug I have never encountered before. 

I am scatterbrained so I have autosave on to save the occasional bacon but set for every 100 changes or 10 minutes.

However, lately every time I do anything, just as simple as stopping playback, it is now saving.  Even if I just playback for 5 seconds with absolutely no changes.  Not a big deal except it is putting an annoying hiccup in my workflow.

Anyone else having this issue that is using autosave?

It may be something in the project causes SONAR to think the project is changing. The dirty flag (an asterisk by the project name in the Windows header) is one indication that SONAR has detected changes to the project. To reduce autosave activity, I only use timed saves by setting the number of changes to 0.

As usual scook to the rescue. 

Thanks bud.  Working correctly now.

as Steve has mentioned, it is probably something in your project causing the auto save.
My guess is its a plug in.

This often happens when you create audio transients for audiosnap... Why?  No clue but its been a problem for years and don't know why.  I have to end up stopping auto save when this happens or I can't work.    Anyone know what else to do about this?
