So pending your setup, likely you do NOT have CA RHA on your servers, but you may have backup software, settings in MS FSRM file screens, etc that could potentially have the same effect. Other programs do not seem to have this issue OR utilize a different 'temp' naming schema. With SMBv1 being such a security issue now, we had to figure out SMBv2 and discovered its not the protocol, but the apps using the protocol. I've been using CA RHA to replicate data for some time and previously we had SMBv2 intentionally disabled as we though this was the culprit, but after doing packet captures, it seems Office apps treat saving to remote source differently if connected via

Then restart Word and allow it to do whatever it wants to do with the file.I don't understand why this has been marked as an answer. If it is not there, then copy a Word document to the AutoRecover folder and then rename it to the filename that Word is looking for. Look in the person's Recycle Bin and, if the file is still there, restore it. Make note of the desired file name the next time the error message comes up. If that doesn't work, you should consider giving Word the file it is looking for. (If you are unsure whether any other programs are using the folder, then simply change the location of the AutoRecover folder, in Word, to some new folder you create.)

You will also want to make sure that once you delete the files that nothing else is getting put in that folder. (You can see this on the File Locations tab of the Options dialog box.) Write down the path for the folder, then close Word and use Windows to delete everything in the folder. Second, look in Word for the location where it is storing AutoRecover files. Run the built-in Windows programs that check the disk and file structure for any errors, and correct any that show up. First, start by doing some diagnostics on the drive in question. There are a couple of things that can be tried. Kim is wondering how to best handle this situation. Now everyone enjoys the annoyance of every second opening of Word being greeted with the auto recovery pane seeking some user action for the same file. This file recovery request has now infiltrated its way other users on the LAN. As a result Word, on every second occasion, requests some action with the 'auto recovered' (now deleted) file. The user took no action to recover the file and, instead, physically deleted it. Ever since that time Word has repeatedly requested some attention to permanently recover the file. Kim recounts an experience where Word 2003 saved a file automatically during a time when the workstation shut down abnormally.
