      I get this error when saving..the only thing that cures it is to save the skp file under a new name..that works for a while then eventually the save error returns on that new file as well..

      So I can't save a file anymore without getting this damn error and it's driving me to drink...anyone know how to solve this?..I've searched this forum and Google and nothing...I've seen CFileException 3 errors discussed but not this variation of it...

          The only time I see this error message is when saving after sending a file to Kerkythea for rendering. The SketchUp team knows about it and are working on a fix. I just save the SKP file prior to exporting to Kerkythea. When I save after that, I get the error message and another copy of the SKP file.

            also if you are working on a network or USB drive this can happen.

                Um., isn't dropbox sync via the network? The latency in that operation may be what is triggering the error message.

                    lame.. jamming.. limping... i.e. doesn't respond fast enough to the SU file saving routine, to fix save local and drop it to the cloud folder then.

                      but i thought the files get refreshed instantaneously in the c drive, and then the syncing takes place between this and other machines and the cloud as an automatic secondary operation, behind the scenes? anyway, i dumped old versions of skp and am using only 2017. i think that cures the problem. i just do not get a thrill from the trays.

                        If Auto-Backup is set then Dropbox probably isn't playing nice with the .skb file related to the .skp

                            I HAVE HAD THIS ERROR FOR A LONG TIME AND ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY: I end up having to save the file manually and keep changing the name. Autosave does it and "Save" does it. I am not on a network, running as admin, saving to "documents/xxx.

                            It started when I upgraded to Make 2017.
