Saving documents on flash drive.

When using the word online, can I save the documents on a flash drive instead of one drive?

    Yes you can... but you need to download the file first.

     

    Go to File, > Save As > Download a Copy (Which will then download a copy to your machine/device)

     

    Locate the downloaded copy and then you can transfer the file to the flash-drive using

    Copy + Paste

    Cut + Paste

    Drag + Drop

     

    Any files stored on the Flash-drive will not be able to be shared.

      AlexWaterton I will try that suggestion. If I save it to the flash drive, does it have to be opened in the web version of office or still need the software version?

      VasilMichev It should be a choice to save documents in other place since the web version of office is only online and might need the documents offline.
