On my way to class to turn in my final project I renamed the project file to the proper naming convention for the class, the greatest mistake I could've made in that moment was not backing up the file. After changing the name and zipping the project folder I made my way into class and found i had time to go over a few things so I decided to launch the project. Well thats where i found my entire parts of my project had been erased, scripts, assets entire folders of these things and more had simply vanished. Naturally I figured i had opened the older version of my project so I began digging... and digging. Nothing. I was in the right project folder, it just was no longer my final project. For whatever reason Unity decided to not just ignore the disassociated files laying in my project folder, no. I completely wiped them away, unrecoverable from what I can tell. Is this a common issue with unity? Is there a fix for this (highly doubtful but...)? I can't believe the program would so blatantly disregard files within a project and scrap them without warning, it just seems like a horrible design... or oversight.
