What are the "autosave" options, and where is work saved? [closed]

edit

Have you tried using the help? For example searching for 'Saving Documents Automatically'

You can find the autosave options under Tools ▸ Options ▸ Load/Save ▸ General, or in Mac OSX, under "Preferences". It looks like this:

The location it saves files to is stored in the LibreOffice > Paths panel. Clearly, it makes a difference which operating system you're using as to how these options are accessed, and where you might save files.

I think the options in my screenshot are defaults, so it might be that you already have some recovery files available.

On a Mac, the Preferences option is found in the standard place, in the upper left, next to the Apple system icon, under the main app items:

That's for LibreOffice as supplied by Collabora, but yours should have the equivalent whatever flavour you've installed for OSX.

Hello,

Under "tools" there are no "options"

"Options" is the last/lowest item in "Tools" menu, just after "Customize", maybe your computer screen is too small and hide some parts ?

Instead, you can try Alt-F12 shortcut.
