So, to apply this approach and manually recover such files, follow the below steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Navigate to the location of Excel temp files (go through the above content) &amp; open the files.<\/li>\n<li>In the top right-side corner, you have to click &#8220;<strong>File<\/strong>&#8221; &gt;&gt; &#8220;<strong>Save As<\/strong>&#8220;.<\/li>\n<li>Now, pick the location where you need to save your Excel workbook.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Method 2- Enable AutoSave Files Option<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As I said in the above paragraph, MS Office has provided AutoSave Feature and Auto Recovery option to avoid the risk of data loss. \u00a0By default, the feature is not enabled in Excel, so you need to turn it on. In order to enable the features, create a copy of the Excel file so that the AutoSave doesn\u2019t overwrite the original.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Enable the AutoSave Feature:<\/strong>\u00a0Navigate to the <strong>\u201cTools\u201d \u201dAdd-ins\u201d<\/strong> and select \u201c<strong>Autosave\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But you must be thinking <strong>where are temporary Excel files stored<\/strong>? The answer is simple: it is situated in the default location.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">MS Excel automatically saves the temp files in the default location of \u201c<strong>C:\\ Documents and Settings\\&lt;username&gt;\\Local Settings\\Temp\u201d or \u201cC:\\Users\\&lt;username&gt;\\AppData\\Local\\Temp<\/strong>\u201d on Windows 7\/Vista.<\/p>\n<p>So from this location, you can <strong>open temp file in Excel.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3869 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.repairmsexcel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/excel-temp-file-location-1.png\" alt=\"excel temp file location\" width=\"512\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.repairmsexcel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/excel-temp-file-location-1.png 512w, https:\/\/www.repairmsexcel.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/excel-temp-file-location-1-300x195.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Method 3- Recover Unsaved Spreadsheets<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are using Office 2010 or a higher version, then you must have an additional built-in feature to the product option known as <strong>Recover Unsaved Spreadsheets.\u00a0<\/strong>This is very helpful\u00a0<span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: left;\">in\u00a0<strong>restoring<\/strong><\/span><strong>\u00a0Excel content<\/strong>.
