Bypass Outlook Temp folder

I'm having this repeated issue where I open an attachment from a co-worker, work on & re-save the document, only to discover after closing the doc that I've saved it (again) to the dreaded Outlook Temp folder.  It then takes a while to navigate to that folder & find my doc or, alternately, if I close OutLook or the program I'm working in crashes (too often w/ Microsoft apps), I lose the doc forever.

So my question is, how can I bypass the Outlook temp folder altogether?  Or is it possible to insure that, if I open an attachment and save it, it won't save to the Outlook Temp folder?
