File Doesn't Save with Low Disk Space, "Allow Fast Saves" On (142779)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q142779 SYMPTOMS
When you save a Word document to a drive that has limited disk space, your
document may not be saved, even though the progress meter in the status bar
reaches 100 percent. When you close and then reopen the file, your changes
are not retained.
This behavior occurs when Allow Fast Saves is selected. (To locate this
option, click Options on the Tools menu, and then select the Save tab.)
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Word for Windows
version 7.0. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Word for Windows
version 7.0a.
WORKAROUND
Turn off Allow Fast Saves. Make sure the drive you are saving files to has
enough disk space.
