Why is Microsoft Word's auto-update so incredibly unreliable?

install an alternative operating system with an alternative office suite

then the program just crashes randomly instead.
but does auto-save like every five minutes by default.

You're like one of those tech illiterate people I used to teach at a workshop. Except they were mostly 70+ years old.

Fuck you, whippersnapper, just for that I'm donating my next social security check to the Hillary campaign.

Sorry we can't all have custom-built PC rigs running Linux with remote auto-saving hard drives on a $500 budget for computers, but I did say I was a moron. You're fighting a battle you already won.

system restore doesnt backup files you dip, it backs up SYSTEM files in case an update fucks up or something you can revert to a previous state of the OS.

considering using the save feature

I really can't comprehend it, OPie, how hard is it to hit Ctrl-S after every paragraph? As a writefag I am autistically paranoid about losing the shit I write (even if nobody will read it in the first place).

Leaving aside moronic behaviour, holy shit OP. Even fucking vim has swapfiles that record changes made to the buffer, and that shit runs in the terminal and isn't some flagship product for a given OS

The Apple MacBook Pro with Retina Display doesn't have this problem.

>>Don't save because I'm a moron
I don't believe this story

Top lel you are an absolute retard, you deserve losing your files for not saving. Stay stupid.

Were you expecting spyware to have basic convenience features?

Even if we backed up anon's text document every time he typed a letter, it would amount to a tiny disk space overhead on a modern PC. Saving should be the default.

>>56063107
why? because he's right?

>not saving your work for almost 2 weeks

ok
