Managing Your Editor Configuration Settings: Specifying Auto Save Settings

Use the Editor to automatically and frequently save a document you are working on.

1. 1. Select File > Preferences.
   2. Press General on the left pane.
   3. Under Auto Save, select the Automatically save documents checkbox. The auto save functionality occurs every ten minutes. This setting is not adjustable.
   4. Press OK.
   5. If you want to delete the auto saved files from the directory where they are stored, press Remove Auto Save Files and press OK.

Auto saved files are removed automatically and periodically after a successful recovery of an auto saved file. Manually removing the auto saved files by pressing the Remove Auto Save Files button should not need to be performed often.
