How to make Word 2013 save to your Computer by Default
Description: This article will describe how to make Word 2013 save documents to your computer by default instead of automatically saving to OneDrive.
- Open Word (Choose Blank document) and click on the File tab, the click on Options.
- From that popup, choose Save. Then click the box next to Save to Computer by default. This should have a check mark in the box.
- You might want to type in a default local file location: (there should be a default location already there).
- Now every time you save a new document, it is set to save to your computer and all you need to do is to pick a directory to save it to. You still will have the option to save it to OneDrive if you need to.
