Lost Flow after saving a copy

Posted on by 74

I lost my flow after saving a copy of it.  I dont know where the copy saved and the original is no longer editable or runnable.

 

I'm freaking out, its an integral flow with TONNES of lines of code.  I was saving it as a backup.  I really dont want to start a new one.  what the heck has happened?

    This happens when you copy a flow.  I thought they fixed this a long time ago.  Quitting PAD and reopening it is not enough.  You have to go to Task Manager and kill Power Automate.  Then reopen and they should both be there.
