VersionTrail

Automatic version backup for Windows

Live on Microsoft Store

The idea

Ctrl+S should save your work. It should also save your history.

Every developer, writer, designer, and analyst knows this moment. You are deep inside a file, a presentation, a design, or a codebase. You save often, you keep moving, and then suddenly you realize that the version you need is already gone.

Undo does not go far enough. Autosave does not always help. Manual copies are easy to forget. VersionTrail solves this with one simple behaviour: whenever you save, it quietly creates a timestamped backup in the background.

Problem

Important versions disappear because most tools save over the current file instead of keeping a clean version trail.

Solution

VersionTrail watches your files and creates automatic, timestamped backups every time a save is detected.
