Capture - Design not saved properly?

TH Designs

I have always wondered why when I start up Capture I usually get a message that the last design I was working on was not saved properly. I always hit File - Save or answer "yes" when it prompts me to save upon exiting the program so why does Capture not think it was properly saved?

    You might be able to "beat the clock" when closing the machine down after exiting Capture - it takes Capture / Windows several seconds to clear the components from the Windows memory space, so it can be possible to get the shutdown going before Capture completely clears memory and flags the design as clean.
