file permission error nixes save to c: drive

A

Aqueous

Occasionally, a Word doc (either docx or compatible doc) will refuse to save
due to "file permission error" and the workaround is to rename the file and
save. This always happens when editing an existing document, never a newly
created one, I think more often w/ docs that i have revised >3 times. This
is worrisome because this was an increasingly frequent symptom before a crash
& a total reinstall of Windows a month ago. After that the problem did not
occur until now, and it is getting more frequent. Not again please! It
happens when saving to the c drive or anywhere in the file structure, not
using removable media. I did NAV2009, malware scans. Word 2007, XP home SP2,
updates current.
