Default Word 2010 Autosaved .asd files are disappearing

You told it you didn't want it to be saved. Why would it then go ahead and
save it anyway?

Word 2010, under File, Options, Save, I have Save AutoRecover
information every 1 minute and have Keep the last autosaved version if I
close without saving checked. I have a path in the AutoRecover file
location blank. When I create a new document, and type some text in
there, I do see the .asd backup file for my unsaved document. However,
when I close the document and tell it Don't Save, the .asd backup file
disappears. I thought that feature meant that .asd file would remain
there so I could pull it up under File, Recent, Recover Unsaved Files
after I closed without saving. I need to get that working, or
understand what I'm not understanding about that feature. Thanks in
advance.
