Microsoft word doesn't have auto save? It definitely did before right?

I haven't used it in forever, but that is insane.

It used to have some shadowy kind of autosave where if your PC crashed it could restore the document. ( or a large part of it ).

But no actual autosave except If you have o365 ( or the one drive integration? I don't really know). I only use it at work where they pay for a License

Wow, that seems crazy. I pretty much use exclusively Foss stuff but I can't imagine not having autosave for your documents

No autosave without OneDrive. The solution proposed on MS forums is to “get in the habit” of hitting the shortcut for manual save. I’m not kidding.

That's insane. Exactly why I migrated away to linux and Foss.
