My autorecovery says it is enabled. I looked and the item is checked under
Save, Autorecovery and I changed it to 3 minutes. Every 3 minutes, I'm getting autorecovery is not enabled and to save the document as different file. Any suggestions on correcting this problem? |

See http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm
3 minutes between autorecovery saves is excessive aand will disrupt working, Change it to at least 10 minutes. Note that this is autorecovery and not autosave - see http://www.gmayor.com/automatically_backup.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jadepant wrote: My autorecovery says it is enabled.

auto recovery is not working how to enable
Autorecovery was set at 10 minutes and automatically reverted back to 10
minutes, but it still doesn't work. It keeps giving the warning message to save as a different file. We have our backups set for 3 minutes also, but they go to a different folder. Any other suggestions?

auto recovery is not working how to enable
Unless you have some additional software installed, there is no function
within Word that will save backups automatically, let alone to a different folder. If you have something doing that then it is likely that it is interfering with the autorecovery process. Did you attend to the measures indicated in the first link I posted - http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm ? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jadepant wrote: Autorecovery was set at 10 minutes and automatically reverted back to 10 minutes, but it still doesn't work.

auto recovery is not working how to enable
I just checked again and just the check box for backups is clicked and there
is no place to set the time. I reset autorecovery to 10 minutes, but I'm still getting the warning. Should I reboot the PC to get this to take effect. I did close down Word and restarted. It seemed to be fine for about 20 minutes and then started up again. I do have many different programs on the PC, but nothing else was open and running when this started. Any other suggestions?
