OneDrive doesn't upload local *.TMP files -- workaround?

I would like to sync a folder where Microsoft Word (and PowerPoint, for that matter) store their temporary autosave files, with OneDrive.

That way, if Word or PowerPoint crash and for some reason some of the local autosave files are deleted, I can restore the last state of my documents from the OneDrive backup.

However, it seems that OneDrive does not sync files with the *.tmp file extension, which Word and PowerPoint create on auto-saving.

Does anyone know of a setting or trick to get OneDrive to sync *.tmp files anyway?
