Windows 10: Disable the new folder button when saving from Word or Excel to SharePoint

I have recently launched a SharePoint site for the business I work from, we disabled the ability for people to create folders directly in SharePoint using the library settings. We have now found that when users create a new file using word and Excel, they have the ability to create a new folder when the go to save the file into the document library of the new SharePoint site. How can I have this feature disabled?

excel not auto recovering and manually saving

Hi,

The concern you have encountered with Excel not auto saving may be due to a corrupted file or a misconfigured setting.

May we ask if you have 3rd party software running when using Excel? If yes, we suggest to temporarily disable it to isolate the issue.

Any changes made on your computer prior to the issue?

Have you tried any possible troubleshooting steps? If yes, what are those steps and did you get any error messages?

You can turn-on the auto save option by the following steps:

• Open Excel
  
• Go to File then Options
  
• Under Save option, check the 'Save AutoRecovery information in every' option
  

the best way to check when auto save is disabled is to hover over the toggle and read the reason that the popup tool tip identifies. Simply follow the steps provided in this

article.

According to this
article the autosave function will be disabled when the file is in the old file format .xls.

Kindly keep us posted with the results.

Regards.

 

Saving an attachment via file explorer to SharePoint

At some point in the past few months the following behavior presented itself when saving excel and word files (that are attached to an email) to our SharePoint document library via file explorer. Once file explorer displays and we go to select a folder to
save to, IF there are more folders than fit in the display of file explorer window, you have to single click the FE display window before you can select the folder, otherwise if you scroll down and attempt to double click the intended folder, FE selects the
first folder within the list of folders, not your desired folder. It does not occur if saving a PDF.

How do we get file explorer to not act in this manner?
