Turn off auto back-up or prevent back-up copies of files from being saved in Corel Draw X7

It used to be in a convenient and obvious place. Now it's not. Believe it or not I can't seem to find an answer to this question. I don't need my folders being clogged up by back-up copies.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

If you mean the "Backup_of_" files, they will always be saved in the same folder as the original file.
You can turn backup saving off, but I don't recommend it.

That is exactly what I mean! Do you know how to turn it off in X7?

Options > Workspace > Save.
Disable "Back up original file before saving".

No such option. Corel for some reason seems to move everything around between versions.

Here's a screen shot:

There should be another "Save" section under "Workspace".
Unfortunately I haven't got X5 installed, but I checked X4 and it's there (named "Make backup on save" instead).
