PSP X5 How do I turn OFF Autosave??? Please advise...!

[SJS]

I want to turn OFF autosave. I cannot handle frequent interruptions while cloning, painting, ... etc. as PSP saves my large file every other minute!!!

I have looked at the AutoSave Preferences, and read the related HELP, but cannot turn Autosave off as documented. There is no check box next to the "Save edits ..." line in the Preferences --> Autosave Settings on the Adjust Workspace tab. My only option is to say OK or cancel. I cannot change anything!

Note that Auto-Preserve in General Settings is NOT on/checked.

So HELP PLEASE!

Reluctantly user of X5... this is so painful!

EDIT: Sorry didn't see your edit before I posted....or I completely misread what you wrote originally.

Anyway, I can't explain the lack of that checkbox. Mine has a checkbox next to it. But turning off the AutoSave is under the "Edit Workspace" tab at the top of the dialog. You can just turn off auto-saving.
