issue with options

B

Bacchus

Everytime I try to change my options I get a pop up telling me "Cannot
Access Directory" I am trying to change my autosave options to another
folder location but I cannot do anything because of this.

Can somone tell me what is wrong?

thanks

Perhaps you have entered more than 53 characters in the file path to your
default file location in Tools>Options>General or in the Autorecovery path.

Try re-naming folders in the path to come up with less than 53 characters then
re-enter your new path.

You may have to edit the registry in order to change the path if You can't get
in through Tools>Options

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Excel\Options>Default Path

Enter your new path here.
