I never seen such error massege...

Are you really using Windows 7?

There are some post about the write rights on Windows 10 - the are related to the automatic upgrade of the op.sys.


And what about the saving into the native ODF fileformats onto same folder??? Had you tried it?

It sounds like AOO thinks the file is open elsewhere.

Go File > Save as ..., and give it a new name. Once saved properly delete the old one.
