Turn off auto backup

[spg2112]

Hello all,

How do I turn the automatic backup feature off? The help file says Tools>Options>General, but I don't see the checkbox. I don't see a missing add-in either.

My Help screen says Tools > Autosave (I'm running XL 2000, SR-1). If you don't have Autosave showing, you may need to re-install the Add-In by going to Tools > Add-Ins and selecting the Autosave add-in. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah that's a different feature. I'm talking about the one that makes a .xlk file in the same directory as the original file.

Have you tried looking on the Save tab or any of the other tabs under options? There should be a checkbox somewhere.

I'm using Excel XP, and there is a checkbox to turn off automatic saving of "autorecover" info.

Just a thought!

Yes! Thank you! Under the "Save As" Tools, General Options
