I’ve had Word files that had a LOT more graphics than that. 120 MG worth, with no problem. And even when the computer has crashed I don’t remember it ever sending me into an infinite loop like that.

I’ve learned that it’s always best to have hard physical backup that the NSA goons can’t get. Anything on a computer belongs to the government at this point.

Seems like your explanation is “sh!t happens”. Thanks for the “expertise”.

No, more like you don't know what you're doing.

That makes the "sh!t" happen.

If you want to use images to demonstrate your theory, you really need to handle them a bit better.

Actually that is a very good description of what happemns when the action has exceeded the memory available to handle the processing task or a software routine has corrupted an operating system procedure. Recovery typically requires a reboot of the operating system, which typically results in the loss of an open file unless the file data was was automatically cached on permanent storage before the application and/or operating system corruption and crash.

I know that you’ve had problems with your PC. I learned a long time ago to save early and save often. I don’t know if you are aware that Ctrl-S will do a file save. It makes saving your files easier. Get in the habit of using that regularly.
