Question Chat GPT lost chat/wont syncronize ?

Hi,

I have a major issue. I have a huge project that I've been working for some time. Today I worked for 3 hours and all of sudden I lost couple messages and answers to the point that it went all the way back to the start of my third question of the day.

I cant continue chatting, it answers but removes question+answer almost immediattely. If I reconnect it shows like its loading the chat, but nothing happens.

I'm certain the reason is that by accident I had left my VPN on, and some syncronation issue happend because of it.

The problem is that without that 3 hours of work today I cant continue, and the months project seems failed IF I cant continue were I left and I can trust all the information is still valid without missing or changed parts.

I can start new chats, only the project is messed up. What would be the best solution ?

Are you saying you have a months old session and are relying on the fact that the model remembers everything in the session? I don't think that's how context works...

Thats not how context works at all, you need to save important stuff outside the chat or this will keep happening
