Default Saving multiple versions of a file automatically

Hi,



First off, apologies if this has been covered already. I couldn't find anything discussing my specific issue...

Last night MS Word 2016 (on MS Windows 10 x64) crashed. But before shutting down immediately it saved all the open files over the top of the previous versions.

This resulted in me losing a significant amount of work in the instance of one particular file.

When I went into Explorer and attempted to review previous versions of the file, it came up blank - no versions other than the one it saved upon crashing.

Is there a way of saving multiple versions of the file? Physical, tangible files that I can open and delete as I please. Whether that me through an option in MS Word 2016 that I can't find, or 3rd party software.

Thanks in advance,
