PowerPoint: Autosaved versions disappear after saving file

I was working on a presentation in PowerPoint when I accidentally deleted some content in it. Undo did not help, but I saw there are several older auto-saved versions listed in the File menu.



I thought it was a good idea to first save the current document (I added some new content before I noticed that I deleted the wrong parts), which I did. But after that the auto-saved version were not listed any more. This looks very counter-intuitive (unless I were only after old versions and had no new content).



Are those now permanently deleted? If yes, can the behavior be changed?
