AutoRecover in Excel

Excel has a feature called AutoRecover that saves your work automatically while you are working on a file. This helps protect your work if Excel crashes or if you forget to save your changes. You can restore your file using this feature.

How to Use AutoRecover:

  1. Open Excel.
  2. If there are autosaved versions, the Document Recovery pane will appear.

  3. Click on an available file to open and recover it.

Important Details About AutoRecover:

  • Excel autosaves your work every 10 minutes by default.
  • If you work on a file for less than 10 minutes, Excel may not save an autosaved version.
  • If you don’t see the file you need, you can check all autosaved files.

How to Find All Autosaved Files:

  1. Go to the File tab.
  2. Click Manage Versions.

  3. Select Recover Unsaved Workbooks.

AutoRecover can be very helpful for recovering unsaved changes. Use it to save time and avoid losing important work.
