Disable autosave in Sharepoint Online
Hi, I know this question may have been asked. I have also seen so much information online about disabling auto-save in Sharepoint online. My question is, can we set a library such as the documents...

This does not turn off auto-save... it just makes it way more confusing to access documents. What if I am creating a template in sharepoint that needs to be edited and then saved as a new document? how do I do that without over-writing the template every time?

Hello ihatemicrosoftsomuch1
you can use content types in SharePoint. See for more information https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/set-a-custom-template-for-a-sharepoint-library-8e0177eb-46bd-4346-9998-330c32733c25?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845
Best, Dave
- MatildaAdcockSep 09, 2024Copper ContributorI am having the same issue. I want to be able to have multiple people looking at a document but it asks you to save changes when you leave it. At the moment people are not making changes to the document but sharepoint thinks they are because it autosaves with them in it.
