Selecting AutoSave Preferences

You can select the default AutoSave setting. This setting saves the file to a temp folder whenever a change is made. Once the file is saved manually, the file is removed from the temp folder and saved in the user file.

If the application crashes or is closed without saving the file, the file can be located in Auto Saved files, and then saved to the path of the original file

1. Open Wordfast and click Edit >Preferences or press F9 to go to Preferences.
