See the node "Recover" in the Emacs manual, it is described there. > When my Emacs crashes (so about twice a week) I use M-x recover-this-file after reopening the files that I was editing. Is Emacs supposed to do more that the recover-this-file prompts? Did I misconfigure something? When you start Emacs as "emacs -q" (lower-case 'q'), it should show a prominent message saying this: Auto-save file lists were found. If an Emacs session crashed recently, type M-x recover-session RET to recover the files you were editing.
