Office 2007:

1 open Microsoft word.

2.Click the office button in the top left of the screen.

3.In the left side click the save option under save documents , make sure that " Save Auto Recovery Information every a" Checkbox has tick .

4. In the dropdown menu located at the right side, type 1 or use the arrow keys to set the number from 10 to 1. Click Ok and then  to close the dialog box. Here its all done

I hope it will help you.
