Hi, tested now :
auto-save-sirectory file:///home/user/
is the home of the user

obvoulsy you can not set system folder protectec by root as is
auto-save-sirectory file:///home/

this is not the home user but the home folder for all user and is protected
with root:root
you can choos any directory for the autosave, but inside your user folder.
