Highly likely.
Investigate your auto-save interval in the meantime. Maybe a shorter
one
will help, or else:
I'm curious if the gnucash log file would not have helped in this case.
It records (entered) transactions since the last save so it doesn't rely
on the automatic save interval. I've only used this capability once and
it worked very well. The tutorial says,
In case you exit GnuCash inadvertently, possibly due to a power
outage or a system wide crash, it is
possible to recover most of your work since the last time you saved
your GnuCash file using this log file.
This is the procedure:
1. Open the last saved GnuCash file.
2. Go to File → Import → Replay GnuCash .log file and select the one
.log file with the same date as the
saved file you just opened. Make sure that you picked the right .log
file, or you will possibly wreak
havoc in your accounts.
Log replaying will recover any transaction affecting the balance
entered since the last save, including those
created from scheduled transactions and business features (invoices,
bills, etc.).
FWIW.
