If you find Word’s AutoSave feature annoying, you can disable it in the settings. We’ll show you exactly how to do this.
Word: Disabling AutoSave
- Open Word and click on the ‘File’ tab in the top-left corner of the window (Word 2013). If you’re using Word 2007, click the ‘Windows button’ instead.
- Now select ‘Options’; this will open in a new window.
- In the menu bar on the left, go to ‘Save’ and look for the ‘Save documents’ category.
- Here, uncheck the box next to the option ‘Save AutoRecover information every 10 minutes’.
- Then click the “OK” button to apply the settings.
