Error Saving

Anonymous — Mon, 11 Jul 2016 13:35:20 GMT

I'm having an issue re-saving files. I tend to save every 5-10 minutes because I don't want my work to be lost and it has started to give me the message below and then to remove the original and only leave the .bak file (which when I try to open it, is normally corrupted). Has anyone else had this issue or knows of a fix for it? Thank you!

Hi,

welcome @Anonymous.autodesk.com!

There is no image attached here, but my first guess is that you don't have all permissions in that folder you try to save to.

Another try could be to turn off your antivirus software (just for a test) and try to run the same on your local harddisk.

We can't see your image. (Or at least I can't.)

Does this help any? http://cadpanacea.com/wp/?p=1351

Hopefully that will help. All of my files are saved to a network because multiple people work on them. I'll try that. Thank you!

Hi,

looking to your image I see that the path to save the file is named "G:\GoogleDrive\..." ... is that a local network path or does that point to a cloud path?
