When I delete a workbook excel is automatically saving a copy to 'my
docments'. How do I stop this from happening?

Hi,

Please give us the steps you are doing.

If you are inside Excel and choose File Open or File Save, select a file and
then use the Delete command, I don't think Excel can make a backup. I
suspect the the file was previously saved with the option Alway create a
backup turned on. In that case the file already had a backup, but when you
deleted it the backup remained.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,
