"Versions." I cannot find them. Don't want them
Oh man, this is insane. I have been searching for (where are versions stored) and getting nowhere except...I can't do anything about it.
Turned on visibles, tried to follow trails where people have said they are stored, read that no actual "copies" are stored, read more about...just more about and still have no idea if and where any given file I create is being stored someplace in addition to where my original (if it is even the orioginal anymore) actually is.
This is insane. This is why I never liked Windows, I never could get my hands on anything. I've been a Mac user for over 25 years and since Lion, I have never felt more lost and out of control.
Can anyone please tell me where these so called "versions" are? I mean, really, where are they? I don't want copies (or versions) of everything I do to be lingering around on my hardware or in the ethos. I want to decide what to keep and where to keep it.
Can I do that? How?
