[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1800940, member: 46727"] "Always choose to make a backup" is only available when you open Microsoft Word, Preferences, Save. That will ensure a backup copy is always made when editing a Word document. As far as I'm aware, there are no similar settings for Powerpoint or Excel other than the "Autosave" feature which is unreliable. There are no basic MS Office preferences. Sorry about the confusion. Just make sure you have a backup copy of any Excel sheet you create. You can do that easily enough by using the "Save As" feature and applying a different name to the sheet. It's more work but it's a lot safer than depending on the broken autosave feature. [/QUOTE]
