Paul_Mather Thanks for the response, Paul! Do we know why this option is not available in MS Project?
Enabling Auto Save in the Options screen does NOT enable this slider button. Its an entirely different functionality (it just does a Save every certain number of minutes you set) It also blows away your Undo/Redo when you use this feature - so I'm not interested.
It would be great if someone from MS could chime in and explain why this feature is missing from Project, or how I can enable it.

Hello EricFromNorCal,
Yes this does work different to other office products (Word , Excel etc.) but Project is a different product to these. I'm not sure anyone from Microsoft will respond here. Probably best to raise the suggestion here: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/forum/40792262-301c-ec11-b6e7-0022481f8472
