Default How to specify folder for automatic backup documents?

Automatic backup does not provide option for specifying where to save backup
documents. How do I set a specific folder?

Default

This is not user-configurable. Backups must be kept in the same folder with
the document. In case you are under the mistaken impression that this is a
"security backup" (a duplicate of the file you save), see
