Recover unsaved work
It is now easier to recover a Word document if you close your file without saving, or if you want to review or
return to an earlier version of the file you're already working in. As with earlier versions of Word, enabling
AutoRecover will save versions while you are working in your file at the interval you select.
Now, you can keep the last autosaved version of a file in case you accidentally close that file without saving, so
that you can easily restore it the next time that you open the file. Also, while you are working in your file, you
can access a list of the autosaved files from the Microsoft Office Backstage view.
Work better together
Word 2010 helps you to work with your colleagues more efficiently. Word 2010 also includes features to keep
your information more secure when you share your work, and to keep your computer more secure from files
that might not be safe.
Work on the same document at the same time
In Word 2010, you can work together right within Word. You do not have to send with e-mail attachments or
save draft documents with names such as TSP_final_2_FINAL.docx. Instead, just open your document, and
start to work. You can see who else is working with you, and where they are editing.
When you open a shared document, Word automatically caches it so that you can make changes to it offline,
and then Word automatically syncs your changes when you come back online. When you must work away from
the office, you no longer have to worry about saving local copies or manually merging your changes into the
server document when you return to your office.
In Word 2010, multiple authors can work on a document at the same time, and Office Web applications let you
work on your documents.
Multiple authors can edit a single document at the same time and stay in sync with each others' changes.
Authors can block access to document regions while they are working on them.
