Can't save HTML file

C

C. Roy Blye

Hi,

Note: The following description refers to an HTML file residing in a folder
on my computer, not an HTML file on the internet (web page.)

When I open an existing HTML file with Notepad, then attempt to "Save" it,
an alert message box appears which says:
"Cannot create the C:\Users\Me\Desktop\folder name\filename.html file.
Make sure the path and filename are correct."

I can "Save As..." a different file name or different file type, but cannot
"Save" in the normal manner.

This problem only affects saving an HTML file. There is no problem with
other file types.

I'm not certain of the time sequence, but I think I downloaded an update to
QuickTime since the last time there wasn't a problem.

Thanks for your help,

CRB

I have no problem at all. I use nedit on Linux.
