Document Recovery Message

Hi,

 

Every time I save and open a new Excel document, the document recovery screen comes up. 

Is there a way to stop this from happening?

    Clear the files from this location:
    C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel

    Don't delete XLStart or the XLB file.

        Try checking the location through File Explorer. There's a filter on the location when you view it through the Open window.
