Files showing "You have unsaved changes" error since March 15th (mainly Ukrainian users)

Same problem. I can’t even open the file.

Hi there! Sorry to hear you are having issues! We believe that these are ISP network issues, and that Figma is particularly susceptible to these issues because we use long-lived connections. We suggest reaching out to your ISP as other customers have reported that their ISP was able to fix the problem.

Our Tech quality team has been working with engineering to address this — we’d appreciate it if anyone who is experiencing this would fill out this form so we can grab some additional data: here

There is no problem with my provider, but I have got the same issue with autosaving today! Could you fix this? Autosaving takes 15-20 minutes and I can`t save to version history as well :((

I have the same problem in Ukraine. The desktop app was reinstalled twice. Browser version doesn’t work too. Other applications and programs work properly online. The connection is stable. My provider has checked the “Trace route”, the signal flows well from my computer and in another direction. Please, fix this problem with unsaved files. How can I go on working normally? What solution can you offer?

I solved it. Message your ISP provider and after that everything is working stable. I describe my problem and asked them to help. Maybe in my case, it works, but in any other case won’t work.

My provider describe the message with the problem.

“Добрий день.
Через один з міжнародних операторів трафік на ці ресурси мав втрати. Наразі ми трафік перенаправили на інші мережі, а цьому оператору написали листа на вирішення проблеми.”

So, as we can see the problem on side of international traffic operators.

Hi 👋
I’m based in Portugal and I’ve been facing this or a similar issue since a few days ago, I’m not sure of the exact date.
Every time a merge a branch to Master, I get the Clod icon “The file has unsaved changes.”
Closing and opening the Tab solves it but sometimes I lose work! This is far from ideal…

I don’t think this is just a Ukraine issue. I’ve been getting the unsaved changes message on various files for several days – and I’m in Iowa. The status sometimes fails to correct itself, even when changes are in fact syncing between Figma desktop and Figma browser. I sent a network log along to support.
