Impactful IndividualOld problem still not not fix/cannot save pbix
Hello,
very often when I try to save the pbix.file, PowerBi comes with a warning that its already opened somewhere. Of course its not opened twice. And what other program would try to get acces to it? Also when I try to rename to save elsewhere its not always working. Only after I try it several times maybe. How can I fix that problem once and for all?
Thank you in advance.
Best.

Applicable88Hi Greg,
thanks for the effort! It was not possible for me to look up with the task manager, so I will definitely try to find the "other" program, which also access the file at the same time. I have a little idea that onedrive could be so problem, since it always wants to sync with the cloud. Would be a bad thing, since there are folks there update their file over onedrive/sharepoint.
Best.

Applicable88 Well, that error indicates you are out of disk space...

LOL hey Greg_Deckler ,
I still have plenty of free disp space. Sorry for the confusion, I mean this one actually:
That happens all the time. Even change directory or name won't help. Any solution here?
