Environemnt:
Physical PC - W7, 16GB RAM - TB HD
VMWare - 8GB RAM - 80Gigs HD - SharePoint 2013 Installed
I have encounterd 5 instances of disappearing and reappearing work. I eliminated the possibility of the VM rolling back by placing a file in the C Drive and verifying it was there when the list was not. As I have (re)created the same list a couple times, it will revert back to earlier "versions" - no versioning or none at all. Any info that was in Designer will be gone as well. However if I reboot, a "version" will come back, sometimes with data, sometimes not.
This has also happened with Images I uploaded in Designer, and modifications to a master page. I have not been able to find anything consistant, and I use VMWare for other Dev Environments that have not experieinced the same issue. This is why I am leaning towards SharePoint. I have done tons of research and cannot find anything silimar to this out there. At this point - I am taking suggestions!!!
Any help is GREATLY Appreciated, and thank you for your time!
