I have found the problem. The windows update KB885250 which happened around
the middle of Feb is the problem. Hopefully there will be a fix on the way.

Uninstalling it appears to resolve the problem.

My computer tech people tell me this is a problem with a recent update.
Apparently this is showing up since the latest update.

When I try to save a file that I have adjusted with a new name I get
the
following message: The folder "name" isn't accessible. The folder may
be
located in an unavailable volume or protedted with a password. I have
been
saving files like this for years. What's up?
