Errors while saving project files

Unable to reliably save changes on soapui project files, my current issue is with changes at the level of assertions. I can view previous versions of the file that track my history of saved changes at higher levels of the project (names of test cases, names and positions of test steps, etc.) but the assertions inside these test steps do not record the changes that were made alongside those higher level changes. In this instance alone I have lost work done on these scripted assertions amounting to four hours. I would appreciate any advice on how to retrieve these lost changes, or how I can avoid this problem in the future.

 

Thank you for your support,

Since it's usually just one project that's having the problem, I just tried unloading that project and reloading it, and this worked. My sample size is only 1 but it's much faster than the other two options so perhaps worth the attempt. I suspect this works because it writes to the .suo file, and perhaps fixes the corrupted part of it that was causing the issue to begin with.
