The free AutoBackup for Word is very well thought out and helps you if a Word file has accidentally been deleted. This is arguably one of the worst cases that can happen to you while working with Word.

The little tool notifies you with a sound when a backup has been created, if set in the settings. It automatically saves the older version as a backup and names the file accordingly.
