All - I'm having occasional crashes but finding I dont have an autorecover version of the workbook - so typically lose what I've done!

I then go and clear the exception for that workbook so its back to saving autorecover versions.

Question being - I've got hundreds of workbooks knocking around - a lot being monthly versions of things, rather than me having to remember to go and check the options for each book for the foreseeable future - is there any way to run through all workbooks with a macro and make sure autorecover is on ?

If I open a new workbook, autorecover is on - it must be some files at some point had it disabled and its propogated from there?

I'm using office365 and fully uptodate - but files stored on traditional inhouse server shared drive.

Thanks

Stuart

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
How do you clear the exceptions? I'm running Office 2019 and have found no way to do that!
Thanks!
