Problem with .aup file

[Mindwalk]

Hi guys,
sometimes I encounter a strange error with Audacity.
When I save my .aup project file and I try to open it, it pops up with an error.
I went to the map where my .aup was saved and I saw that the data folder wasn't named correctly.
The map was named "namedata" instead of "name_data" which is correct.
I don't know if there is something wrong with my pc or if it's a Audacity bug.
Has anyone else ever had this? Thank you!

Are you using Audacity 1.3.13? The versions of Audacity 1.3.11 and before all had instability problems and Audacity 1.2 versions frequently will not run on some modern machines at all.

Do you use MetaData in your music or do you use "forbidden" characters in your filenames? Both can lead to magic behavior. A very typical problem is trying to put dates in filenames. 20110614 is today's date, not 6/14/11.

Thanks for the fast response!
Yes I am using the 1.3.13 version of Audacity (the most recent, I think).
I don't remember if I used any special characters or something like that.
It's not such a big problem, I was just curious.

If it happens again, make a note of the exact error that pops up and we can try to figure out what is causing it.
