Is there anyway to make a copy of a file everytime it is saved, created, or moved into a certain folder. For instance, I save "Whatever.txt" in the "Stuff" folder and it makes a copy in the "Copies" folder. Not a shortcut, but a copy.

Use File/ "Save As"
Doing so will leave the original as it was when it was opened and the new will contain any changes to the original.

Or when ready choose File/Save and then use Save As to the new location with the same name.

Other then that I no of no way.

I mean automatically copy the file, without doing it yourself.

like report say there is no other way to get around the problem. the only other thing u can do is use macro to achieve that. For example, record a macro in excel and save it. so the next time u choose save it will automatically save another copy of the file.
