Word 2010 not saving automatically
When I have a Word document open, I have selected the option to save every 10 minutes, and keep the last save if I exit without saving. This does not appear to be happening, and I lost a lot of work earlier today. Any suggestions? If Word is saving the document, how do I recover it?

To find unsaved documents: Click File tab | Info | Manage Versions | Recover Unsaved Documents. This will work if there is an autorecover (*.asd) file left on the system.
Note that the option to have Word save every X minutes refers to autorecover files; these are not meant to replace ordinary saves. For an approach to "true" automatic saves, see http://www.gmayor.com/SaveInTwoPlacesAddIn.htm.
