Using Office 2003 - Word (SP3) and Windows 7, I keep getting the message: Saving of the AutoRecovery file is postponed for "filename.doc"

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in Advance.

 
You can turn it off, if you like: Tools; Options; Save; uncheck "Save AutoRecover info every:" box; click OK

Are you using removable media?

I would prefer not to turn it off b/c when it works it is a useful feature.

I am using a network drive, I have never had this issue prior to windows 7.

Any other ideas?
 
Chances are you don't have proper permissions. Please look at MS article 174162. It refers to old version etc, but the general explanation still applies.
