Not that TVP crashes often during work. But yesterday I was browsing through a lot (~100) of old files, and since there were no preview pics I had to open one after another to the the content. In that process TVP crashed several times.
No, if TVPA crashes, the file has no more references and will be deleted by the system.
This is the main reason it is implemented this way on the Mac, compared to windows where these files stays on your drive.

No no, it's the same on windows, the file is deleted automatically after a crash ( theoretically because TVP never crash :twisted: ).
