[Bug] No Autosaves while the Addon is active #145

Description

@kivig2

Summary

Apparently this is a common problem for some Addons, sometimes related to forever running modal operators, that while the Addon is active they block Blender's native Autosave from working.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Enable the Addon,
  • Save the file to give it a name,
  • Add some object to introduce changes since last save,
  • Wait a couple minutes, depending on your settings, for Autosave timer to run out,
  • File -> Recover -> Auto Save...
  • There is no new Autosave file generated.
  • If the Addon is disabled the Autosave does work.

Expected Behavior

Autosave to work

Actual Behavior

Autosave gets blocked

Environment

Windows 11 Pro x64
