I have! Using 3.7 64 bit for windows. I always set the auto save on  and some
times POV just doesn't save anything but the save icon gets turned off. After I
render a few times and nothing changes I manually save and then things start to
work normally. It doesn't happen often, But it can be annoying.

Have Fun!
