Save Office files directly to Storegate

Last updated on Feb 28, 2025

When you're working in Office and you're saving files, the default location to save is usually local to My Docs or OneDrive. As a Storegate customer, you can add Storegate as a default path to save your Office files to your sync folder or directly to the cloud.

Follow these steps to make changes:

  1. Open one of your Office programs (Word, Excel or Powerpoint) and then press "File".

  2. Then select "Options" at the bottom of the left menu and afterward, click "Save" in the new box that appears.

  3. Under "Local File Path by Default", select Browse and select the desired path you want as the default, i.e., the path to the folder of the Cloud Folder.

  4. Press OK to save the change. Clearly!
