Hi,

Please see the following steps about "AutoRecover and AutoSave" of Office 2013:

1. While in Word 2013, Excel 2013, or PowerPoint 2013, click/tap on File (ALT+F).

2. Click/tap on Options (ALT+T).

3. To Turn On AutoRecover and AutoSave
NOTE: This is the default setting.

 A) In the left pane, click/tap on Save. In the right pane under Save documents (Word 2013), Save workbooks (Excel 2013), or Save presentations (PowerPoint 2013).

Check the Save AutoRecover information every X minutes box, and select how many minutes you want.
Check the Keep the last autosaved version if I close without saving box.

Note: While entering a small number in the minutes box will have your work saved more often, it may also make Office run slower by saving often.

The default is 10 minutes.

 B) In the left pane, click/tap on Advanced. In the right pane under Save, check the Allow background saves box, click/tap on OK.
