您还需要启用每隔指定分钟保存自动恢复信息(Save AutoRecover information every specified minute)并输入自动恢复间隔。另外，如果我关闭而不保存框选项，请勾选保留最后一个自动恢复的版本。(Keep the last AutoRecovered version if I close without saving box )
如果这不能解决问题，请尝试其他方法来解决问题。

- Excel现在将提示您两个选项，包括Repair和Extract。您可以使用修复(Repair)选项来修复损坏的Excel工作簿。如果修复(Repair)功能不起作用，您可以使用提取(Extract)功能从工作表中提取值和公式。
之后，检查这是否有助于修复Excel中的(Excel)AutoSave not working 问题。
4]重新保存临时文件
如果自动保存功能在(AutoSave)Excel中不起作用，您可以从临时文件中恢复您的Excel文件。这些文件通常位于Windows 10中的以下位置：
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\
您将在此处看到类似的Word和PowerPoint文件夹；
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\
您还可以尝试在其他位置查找未保存的Excel文件：
C:\Users\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\UnsavedFiles
当您找到Excel临时文件时，使用XLS或XLSX扩展名重新保存它以恢复工作簿。
5]修复或重新安装Office

If you are experiencing the same problem where the AutoSave feature has stopped working in Excel, Word or PowerPoint, this article will help you to resolve the issue.
AutoSave not working in Excel, Word or PowerPoint

1] Check if the AutoSave feature is enabled
The first thing you should check is that the AutoSave feature is not disabled in Excel. If it is disabled, your Excel files and data won’t be saved automatically.
You can enable it from the top of the toolbar. There you will see an AutoSave button that you have to turn on to make sure to save data automatically to your OneDrive account.
Alternately, you can also go to the File > Options menu, and from the Save tab, enable AutoSave and other related configurations.
You also need to enable Save AutoRecover information every specified minute and enter the auto recover interval. Plus, tick on the Keep the last AutoRecovered version if I close without saving box option too.
If this doesn’t fix the problem, try another method to resolve the issue.
2] Older formats not supported
You should know that the AutoSave feature is not supported in older file formats like .xls, .doc, or .ppt. In this case, you may change the file extension and see if it helps.
3] Fix corrupted file
Your Excel file might be corrupted and thus AutoSave function is not working. So, repair the corrupted Excel file. You can do so by using Excel’s inbuilt repair feature. Here are the steps for that:
- Launch Excel and go to File > Open option and select the file that you want to fix.
- Click on the Open drop-down button and then tap on the Open and Repair option.
- Excel will now prompt you two options including Repair and Extract. You can use the Repair option to fix the corrupted Excel workbook. In case if Repair function doesn’t work, you can use the Extract feature to extract values and formulas from the sheet.
After that, check if this helps in fixing the AutoSave not working issue in Excel.
4] Resave Temp files
If the AutoSave feature is not working in Excel, you can recover your Excel files from temp files. These files are generally present at the following location in Windows 10:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\
You will see similar folders for Word and PowerPoint here;
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\
You can also try looking for unsaved Excel files at another location which is:
C:\Users\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\UnsavedFiles
When you find the Excel temp file, resave it with XLS or XLSX extension to recover the workbook.
5] Repair or Reinstall Office
If nothing seems to work in fixing this error, you can reinstall or repair Excel, Word or PowerPoint. A missing component can also cause AutoSave not working error. Hence, you repair the Excel program or choose to reinstall it.
To repair, you can go to the Settings > Apps section, choose the Microsoft Office module, and then click on the Change option. It will ask you to repair the program using two methods which are Quick Repair and Online Repair. Choose one of the two options and click on the Repair button to start repairing Office.
