Blender Version
Broken: 2.83 and 2.9 Mac
Worked: None

Short description of error
Autosave does not work. I have tried default settings. And I have tried putting the Application on Desktop and run it from there to se if that was some starange stuff goin on when running it from Applications folder. My user is the only user on this computer.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Start default scene and check so the settings are correct (default) save on desktop (and the same in every folder I have tried) and waited for 5 minutes to se if there is any autosave.blend files. But none.

AutoSave files are saved in temp directory, make sure you are looking in the right place.

Yes, but I don't get any temp, tmp or other folder with autosaves ether. And when I press File > Recover > Auto Save... I don't have any files there.

Try running Blender from the Terminal.

cd /Applications/Blender.app/Contents/MacOS
./Blender

Then close Blender. There (in the normal case) should be a report like:

Saved session recovery to '/var/folders/78/83_rsx0j1jb338_yc2gbsyz00000gn/T/quit.blend'

What do you have? Also wait until autosave, there may be an error message.

Try also renaming the 2.90 folder or moving it to a different location.
This way you can run a clean Blender without add-ons or settings.

What happens when you press "File" > "Recover" > "Last Session",
the quit.blend is saved in the same folder as autosave.blend.

Saved session recovery to '/var/folders/0n/9j6c5rxj6wjcct0fwrj9zw840000gn/T/quit.blend'

So it should be here:

I have now downloaded a new 2.9, put it inside a "Blender 2.9 default" folder inside "Applications" and checked that default settings is used, and then I ran it from the terminal. And this is what I get, and I GET AN AUTOSAVE file :) Finally some progress, I thought it was a myth ;)
