Hi Pedram,

Can you clarify what you mean by 'shared files'? Word doesn't support simultaneous editing of documents. Word uses a lot of temp
files in the way it works. Some are content, others are to prevent accidental overwriting of a file someone else is using.

Is the file one that starts with a ~ character and is the same name as the file?

What permissions do the users have in the folders where these are appearing?

Are these on a network drive or a local machine?

I get the same error. I can save the files to a network share that I have all
rights too and when I modify the file or try to save it again the error
"<filename> The file is in use. Please try again later. Some of my clients
get the error when trying to save to the C:\ as well.
The network is a 2003 R2 domain with UNC share paths mapped with script on
logon. Any help on this one is really appreciated. I have tried disabling
offline files. No Help.
 
In my case the problem was Bit Defender Anti-Virus. Remove the Anti-Virus and
the error is gone as well as all the temp files that is created when trying
to save. I have notified Bit Defender of the issue and trying to get resolve.
