 Hi there,

 Restoring from Autosave on Pages is not working and I have similar
 symptoms to these users: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/restore-
 autosave-not-working?replies=3

 Hence I think it may be a bug as other users are encountering similar
 problems.

 Steps to reproduce:

 1) Edit a published page

 2) Let it autosave and exit the page without updating page.

 3) Re-edit same page again and it will have the notification at the top:
 "There is an autosave of this post that is more recent than the version
 below. View the autosave"

 4) Click on 'View the Autosave' link and then choose 'Restore This
 Autosave'

 5) This causes the page to refresh/reload onto the 'Pages' menu.

 6) If you check the page you attempted to restore from it has not been
 modified to reflect the restored autosave (i.e.  it did not work restoring
 the page)

 Please confirm if you can replicate and it is a bug or not?

 Many Thank,
 Jawad
