Autosave Feature

Question

Good Afternoon,&nbsp;I am hoping someone can help me out. I got a new laptop and downloaded the office 365 onto the new laptop. However when I am working on my documents from one drive the auto-save feature has dissapered and won't even give me an option to turn on or off. I really like the auto save and I am wondering what did I do wrong? Any help would be appreciated.&nbsp;Thanks

Hi Kyle,
&nbsp;
Please check File-&gt;Options-&gt;Save if Autosave is checked; be sure you have latest version of OneDrive client; other possible reasons are here

Thanks I did look at that before posting this. There is not even an option to check for auto save under the save section.

You don't have AutoSave&nbsp;with any file or only for some?
If the first, is AutoSave disabled (greyed) or you don't see it all?
&nbsp;
In addition, there were couple of bugs related to AutoSave, but they are fixed for current versions.

Its on all documents and the option is not showing under my settings. I checked for updates and it said I have the most recent update installed.&nbsp;

So, you don't have Autosave at all. And what is your Office365 subscription?
