Drawing becomes write protected in AutoCAD Architecture 2020

[dcoppola]

Randomly the file that I am working on becomes write protected; this is after I have been saving it.  This happens with all the files that I am working in...but it doesn't happen every time.  Files are stored on a server.  This has only been an issue with this release.  I have read a few threads regarding the issue with 2014, but none of that has helped.

where do you store your files?
what is your OS?
what is XLOADCTL system variable set to?
are you saving to a dwg format lower than 2018?
are you working in an dxf?
is 2020 fully updated and patched? ABOUT command is where to check.

Talk to your IT: you most likely have a login rights issue accessing the server.

As a test, move files to your computer for the morning, disconnect from the server, and try to repeat the problem. Your IT will want that test result.

Set XLOADCTL to 2 while you are at it.

I have changed the setting and still have the issue.    I didn't have this issue with any other update for AutoCAD; we've been using this for years.  I am the only one in the office that has this issue.  Updates on other machines worked fine.  It might be a permissions issue with Window 10 (I had read another thread regarding this). 

Thanks for your input.

Ask your IT to clone another machine to your PC if changing log-ins does not fix the problem as another option.
