      This bug is only mildly annoying and perhaps it's not a bug at all, but occasionally when I try to save a file, I get a message that says access is denied. This is for a named file, one that I am continuing to work on. If I wait a moment and try again, I can save the file, in fact the proper name for the file is already filled in. I have a very fast computer so I don't think I am outrunning it, but maybe I am. Does this happen when it is in the process of making a backup? I'm just curious.
      Thanks,

        You could try increasing the autosave interval "Preferences" > "General".

        Or it could be a Windows 6.x User Access Control issue.

          Thanks, Dan.
          My save interval is currently 5 minutes, but I suspect the problem is some type of user violation where the computer is doing something with the file at the same time I'm trying to save it. If it ever gets to the point that I can't either save or use the file, I'll get back with more info. For now, I'm just adapting.

            The only other thing I can think of that might cause this, may be Firmware write-cache handling by the IDE of the harddrives themselves.

            To change this you would need to run an OEM utility downloaded from the harddrive manufacturer's website.
