Microsoft is piloting a novel Windows feature that automatically saves new Word documents to the cloud, with the intent to bolster security, ensure compliance, avert file loss, and enhance cross-device synchronization and online collaboration. Currently, this feature is exclusively accessible to Microsoft 365 Insider users and necessitates a compatible version of Word. Users retain the flexibility to manually alter the cloud storage location or deactivate the feature altogether. By default, new documents are saved to OneDrive or SharePoint, with the current date appended to the filename. When saving with Ctrl+S, a notification will appear, confirming that the file has been created in the cloud. Microsoft anticipates extending this functionality to PowerPoint and Excel in the near future.
