Everything looks fine but suddenly my workflow is not changed. When i open the sharepoint Designer i saw the last changes but when i start the workflow it is not sending emails.So , what is the problem ?

This happens most of the time due to the caching mechanism in SharePoint Designer. What you need to do is the following:
- Close your SharePoint Designer
- Navigate to the following directory: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WebsiteCache
- Delete everything in this directory
- Navigate to the following directory: %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
- Delete everything in this directory
- Open SharePoint Designer and try to publish your workflow again. Everything should now work.
For SharePoint Designer 2013 you need to do the following steps:
- Go to File > Options > General > Application Options
- In the General tab, under the General header, check if the "Cache site data across SharePoint Designer sessions” is ticked. If it is, unchecked it.
- Open your SharePoint Designer again and try to publish your workflows.

It's amazing solution. Thank you. I think it will work. But i don't want to delete cache. Can you tell me another way to save the cache?– f_gulayOct 17, 2017 at 11:46
