Word 2007: how to save to original folder?
How do I force Word 2007 to default to saving files to the folder containing
the file I opened? Clearing the "default folder" in the options doesn't do it (at least not with "Save As" when the target is a thumb drive). |

Word 2007: how to save to original folder?
We generally strongly recommend against saving to (or opening from) any type
of removable drive or media. Much safer to save/copy to the HD and then copy/open from there. -- Suzanne S.
