Default Why does Office always save my file in a temp folder?

Office and most other applications will save to the folder from which you opened
the file.

If you're doing a FileSave As to a non-default folder you could always stick
that folder on the "My Places" bar and a single click will open that folder.

In Excel to set an open/save default folder go to ToolsOptionsGeneral and
place a path in "Default file location".

saved last and just take me there?
