Undo for "save" command

[Nihat Mugurtay]

Dear all,

Are there any ways to cancel the "save" command in STATA 17?
I preserved data on the memory before, but I forgot to "preserve" it before collapsing.

Best,

You can't undo it, You can delete the file or overwrite it with another version, On the latter, see the replace option of save
