I changed the AutoRecover save location in Excel and I get the following
error message: Autosave could not save to <drive/<folder. Is there
anything I can do to fix this error?

Thanks,

Have you tried changing the directory to which AutoRecover saves?

Also: try saving a file in the directory you currently have AutoRecover save
to and see if you can do that. If you can't perhaps there is a problem with
the directory/folder/etc.

About all I can think of is that you do not have permission to save to that
folder.

See StartHelp and Support on permissions.

BTW........autorecover is not the same as autosave which earlier versions of
Excel featured.

AutoRecovery does not make incremental saves/overwites and is useful only if
Excel crashes.
