Something I've never encountered: In the middle of writing, I got a message
indicating that "AutoSave is postponed for Document XXX." I thought this was
fine since I was Cntl-S saving every few minutes. After about 6 hours of the
"postponed" message popping up, I tried to Save As. No "Save As" box came
up. When I tried to close the document (thinking that it had been saved all
along by use of Cntl-S), Word asked if I wanted to Save the document. I
selected "Yes," and then tried to close the document, but was asked again if
I wanted to save. I finally closed it without saving, and the temp file on
the document was last modified (saved) just before I started getting the
AutoSave message. Essentially, the document is lost. I've since tried
opening a blank document and after typing a few words, I try to save.
Nothing. Autosave is selected in the Options tab, but all save functionality
is lost. Virus scans and Ad-Aware scans are negative.
Any ideas?
Thanks all.
