Constant auto save

Question

How can I set the auto save so that it does not save so frequently.  When I have several Excel and Word documents opened and I am trying to enter information into a spreadsheet or typing in a word document the auto save feature comes on every few seconds.  It prevents me from entering anything until it completes it's save cycle.  A few seconds later it does the same thing.  I have set the auto save feature on the particular spreadsheet to save every 15 minutes, but it still continues to auto save every few seconds.  This is very frustration when you are trying to enter information or type a document.  It has to be a Microsoft issue rather than an Excel or Word because if I have both types of documents opened it saves both documents at the same time.  Can someone please help!

Repair Office 2010 and reset the auto save option. Check if it works fine.
