For some reason word has started saving my document each time that I type a keystroke. I have set autosave to 10 minutes, but it does not make a difference. Thanks in advance S

    may help if you include a screenshot over where you set it to autosave every 10min – barlop Sep 15 '20 at 18:20
  • Are there any add-ons in Word? – DrMoishe Pippik Sep 15 '20 at 18:28
  • Which version of word? In office 365 it might indeed save every modification. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/turn-on-autosave-11c9f922-020b-439f-97f7-09b0041ed7cd – Máté Juhász Sep 15 '20 at 19:24
  • In *File menu > Options > Save", section "Save documents", what is the value of "Save AutoRecover information every ..."? – harrymc Sep 15 '20 at 20:01
  • Have you newly installed antivirus software? As far as I know, some anti-virus software also has a file saving mechanism. When you edit a document, it will also call the save function. Please check the relevant settings – Binggo_ MSFT Sep 16 '20 at 07:03
