#CANNOT SAVE DUE TO FILE PERMISSION ERROR WORD 2007 FULL#

The problem appears to be that Word/Office is getting confused on drives (or even down to individual folders) that are set up as writable from a network connection. Really not sure what is going on. May investigate furtherīut for time being I have a workaround. Thanks to bwayne36 for pointing the way to a simple workaround.Īlthough this problem was posted 5+ years ago, Microsoft has still not fixed it: the problem still exists in the very latest version of Office 360. I am running Microsoft Security Essentials and I did not make any changes to it to stop the message from appearing. However, the annoying message no longer appears when I save updates.ĭid not need recovery software, changes to Normal.dot, fussing with Add-ins.

The document went from under 1 M to almost 2.5 M (to be expected with. doc (Word 97-2003) as detailed by bwayne36.

Did not have the problem before but not sure that is relevant. Recently upgraded from Office 2010 to Office 2013. Re-appeared when document re-opened and resaved. Then did not appear for subsequent saves (as long as document remained open.) Message appeared from time to time whenever I resaved the document.
