Autorecovered files

[esantiago]

Hi,

I have been working in a Word document for a while with no problem. However, I created a newer version of the document (in Word), with added images, and my Mac does not autosave the file. It gives me the following message:

"Word is unable to save the AutoRecover file in the location you have specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for AutoRecover files in Preferences, and that you have permission to write files to the location you specified"

I have been looking under "preferences" to see possible actions I can do, but I do not find anything.

I will appreciate any help with this. Seems simple, but I do not fid a way to solve it.

Thanks

Need some more information:

1. What exact Mac model do you have?

2. What exact Mac OS are you running?

3. What version of Word/Office 2011 or 2016 do you have?
