In any Office 365 application, such as Word, Excel or PowerPoint, the titlebar shows an "AutoSave" button. Upon turning this function on, a dialog pops up where you choose which OneDrive to save the document to, and where you enter a name for the file. See screenshots below.
However, this dialog does not allow choosing in which folder on the OneDrive you want to save the document. All files get saved automatically in the "OneDrive/Documents" default folder.
Is there a way to change the behavior of Office apps, so that the user can select in which folder on the OneDrive the file will be stored in by AutoSave?

@PeterAWHurst From the great amount of time it is taking to fix such obvious numskull solution I would suspect fixing it would take rewriting Windows and Office. Seriously, I lose so many, many documents it is driving me crazy. I have Autosave turned on, but I cannot find ANY documents on OneDrive ANYWHERE. I can access them (old ones) through Word, so they are saved somewhere, but I do not know where. Moreover, when I get the path by right clicking on the document in Word list of documents I get a ridiculous path. Following the path requires me to sign in, but none of my credentials work. It is so frustrating I cannot even describe how it feels. Would anyone PLEASE let me know how to discover the path to my documents? Many thanks!
