This isn't a major issue; but if you are like me and have to save everything every five seconds for the fear of losing it in a crash, it gets very annoying.
Well what it is is this: You go up, press save and it sais, "Could not open file '%s' for writing." It saves, but it gives that error.
Well the reason of this topic is:
1. What causes this?
2. Is there any way to prevent it?
and
3. Is there any way to fix it?

1. I'm pretty sure its cause the map is used (still playing on starcraft). However I might be dumb since I'm not sure if that saves and people should be smarter than that.
3. Stop playing the map
I dunno, I've never had it happen when my map WASN'T running on starcraft.

Yes, that is the error if the map is in use. But I am talking about when the map is not being used (except in the editor duh).
Sorry, I failed to specifically mention that it happens even if the map is not being played.

I know this has been explained several times in the past.
Basicly just open the map in an mpq editor and delete the list file.

Also, I just opened it in StarForge and remembered that it does this:
[attachmentid=11704]
I know that the "Could not open file '%s' for writing." and this are related, because I have had these before. (On other comp, too
)
Also, I have had many friends having this problem too. (They come on and say "It wont let me save my map :C")
EDIT: Oh, I guess Bolt posted while I was typing/saving picture.
I will try it.
EDIT#2: lol, this sound had a sound and it is now "~unknowns\unknown_00000188"
Is that the problem?
ADDITION:
Thanks, that worked. And I do not get the StarForge error.
