Invalid Directory for AutoSave?

Everytime it automatically tries to save, I get a warning that says it can't save due to an invalid directory or a directory that I can't write too.  My question is, "How do I find out what directory it's trying to save too, in order to change that directory to one I can use."  This is a new install, 2012, in Windows 7.

prob. the permissions on the folder is not owned by you. try making a new folder and changing the path.

(op)tions dialog box-> files tab - automatic file save location.

 

Make sure you have administrative access rights to the location.

For starters you can type OPTIONS and go to the Files tab.  Search these various file locations for later use.  In this case search the "Automatic Save File Location".
