Do you see a lock padlock any where around the borders of the  form?

Did you check the properties of the form to see if any security has been applied?

You might not be able to save the form with same name if the file at the OS level is set as readonly or you have Windows Explorer's preview open.

‌With Adobe Acrobat you can save the filled form.
