Permissions to save updated files denied

Hi,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this.

I suggest you to perform the below given steps and check if it resolve the permission issue.

• Right click on the file and click on Properties.
• Click on Security, check Owner should be "SYSTEM" in
  Advance tab.
• Now check the save for C:\Users\<username>
• Owner should also be "SYSTEM"
• Check the users you signed into windows as (should be your Microsoft account) should be in the "Permissions entries" list with "Full Contol"
  
• If not, Add the user you are logged in as.
• All the folders and sub-folders below should be "owned" by the user you are logged into windows with
  importantly, have a permissions entry for "full control"
  
• Check for all the related folder where you are getting same error, but for some reason that same user is missing a "Permission Entry". Add a "full control" entry for the user and you should be able to save to that folder
  and all sub-folders

Hope this information helps. Post back with updated issue details for further help.

Thank you.

 

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.

 

Unable to save files correctly to network share with read & write permission

Saving any file to network share folder brings up an error message:
z:\test2.xlsx
"You don’t have permission to modify files in this network location.

Contact the administrator per permission to make these changes"

Facts:

1. Saving any file to the local PC is fine
   
2. This issue happened only when user have permissions (Read & Write) but when I give modify permission its working fine.
   
3. A file with the correct name and extension is created but it is 0kb. If you save the exact same
   

file again and try to overwrite the 0kb file then the document saved correctly the second time .

1. When I tried to use 'Simple Tools' such as notepad also have the same symptoms
   

(only able to create 0kb file initially, and then when you save a second time it saves correctly).
