I would like to set my "Quick Access" from the File Explorer as my "Default local file location" under "Save" options in MS Office. However, when I try to do so I get a warning popup that reads

Really, what I'd like is for the "Quick Access" option to be selected in my save window instead of "Computer."

As of a year ago, [this post](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_word-mso_win10-mso_2016/quick-access-as-default-when-saving-a-word/2a3bcd5e-096a-4f40-bebb-1ff7d6a82ada) seems to suggest this is not possible...

...but I was hoping progress has been made since then.

Anyone know how to go about doing this (directly or creatively)?
