Did my save file disappear?

[Hannelore]

I started a new game and played up until Connor puts a healing machine in the jungle so I'm not very far in but I did save multiple times already when I was save spamming at my starter. I closed my game and now that I've reopened it all my data seems to be gone. I know there have been some issues with people's save files but I thought that was for people who are tying to keep their old files from the previous version. Is there a problem with the game maintaining save files in a new game? 

I'm just wondering whether it's worth starting again or if I need to wait for some kind of fix. On that note, how do you check which version of Desolation you're on? I thought it was in the menu at the start of the game where you can choose from continue, new game, controls etc., at the bottom corner but I might be thinking of another game. 

Thanks for any help :)

 

Edit: I saw a folder in the Pokemon Desolation folder in documents and happily found my new save files; when I copies them across into the Saved Games folder I can play again where I left it which is nice! Just wondering if I will have to do this every time, for now at least? Or if it was a freak occurrence haha :)
