Excel 2010 Help

[Dazzawm]

I am using Excel 2010 and it has an autosave option if you forget to save changes when you close your workbook. I have looked for it in its default location and when I attempt to open it all there is is a grey screen with all my normal excel taskbar options. Why is this please? Thanks.

Ok, thanks. I have done as you said but there is only a file from 2 days ago and not the 'practice' file I have been using this morning.

If the file was not open long enough for Autorecover to run (default is every 10 minutes I think), then you won't have a copy.

I changed it to 1 min for testing purposes!!

I don't know then. Did you see the autorecover kick in at any point? Is the option set to retain files closed without saving?
