    Autosave requires the file be saved on onedrive.

    I was going to say that the only way to make it worse is if it showed ads while it autosaved, but autosave itself is literally an ad for onedrive.

    If you try any of the other decent options, some of them free, you might come to understand the contempt people have for word, because there’s nothing special about it that the others can’t do, and you have to put up with design decisions made because they have market dominance and can use that to push people towards other shit that makes them money.

      I am on Office 2019 and autosave just saves the file where you created it. There is an option to go to OneDrive, but nothing is forced. Is your problem related to Office 365?
