Error-The tag present in the reparse point buffer is invalid when try to overwrite the file in XD 43

Question

I'm working on a local file, and at some point, when I try to save, I get a message along the lines of "the file is not there anymore" or... I don't know, I didn't screencap it.

I proceed to verify that my file (Job_Description_v1.xd) is in fact still where I put it in my local machine. (It is, the screenshot shows it.)
I try to overwrite the local file with "Save as" using the same name  (Job_Description_v1.xd), and a dialogue pops up with "The tag present in the reparse point buffer is invalid." and XD won't allow me to overwrite my file that way.
I save as a different name (Job_Description_v1.1.xd) and this now works. The thing about this "workaround" is, I now I have to create and update all the links to the prototypes/specs again!

If you prefer to work with local files DO NOT UPDATE TO 43.0.12, avoid it like the plague.

I had an issue like this today with one of my users - they downloaded a PDF and then were unable to delete or rename the file due to the listed error. I did some testing and was able to fix it by performing the below steps:

Right click on the file
Select Properties
Select Details tab
Click the link for “Remove properties and personal information” at the bottom
Select “Remove the following properties from this file:”
Click Select All
Press OK
Attempt to delete or rename the file
