Yes, same result when it's on the server.

NO problem when it's on MY computer.

No, just did a basic Windows uninstall and reinstall. Did not delete all user info etc. Will try all that later. $&(*%#

Also put in a report to Adobe for support - we'll see.

rant
Why is it always so flippin' hard? I've been dealing with computers heavy since 1986, and I think it's getting worse not better. Maybe I'll go back to being a mechanic, at least then problems were always solvable!
/rant - still depressed.

Hi all,

Even i have the same problem. When i try to save a file it shows a error "A sharing violation occurred while accessing E:\.....\MFC107.tmp. Also, it deletes the file which i try to save. So i need to save the file in the same location again. It happens both in DW 8 and DW MX.

Can anybody help in this issue?

Exact same problem. System WAS working fine for many months, no changes other than usual MS patches.

Details:

WinXP with all patches.
My "local files" is on a network box running win2k with the website files in a shared folder, to my computer it's W:. Whenever I save a file in DW8, same as above:

A sharing violation occurred while accessing w:\mysite\MVFxxx.tmp

Click ok, and the file I was saving is wiped out. Re-saving as a new file works fine. Save it again, and all over again. I have DW MX on a separate computer, and it works fine, no problems, accessing the same files etc.

Interestingly, sometimes - usually - it takes a minute or two or more to finally get around to announcing the violation, (hourglass in the meantime,) with one of two DIFFERENT windows sounds. A "tink" and a "dum!" - best I can do... ;)

Anything that seems to use the win explorer module is also "stuck" in the meantime. Other programs work fine.

No, I don't have the file open anywhere else with any other program. Only possible culprit is antivirus, Trend Micro Internet Security on all three computers. BUT I turned it off completely on the server, and no help, so unlikely.

Since it works fine on the other computer running DWMX, why not on mine? DW8...

So I uninstalled and reinstalled DW8, and installed the two patches, one at a time, and same problem - though I didn't test without a patch at all - it WAS working!

Searching the net this seems to be a common problem going back for years, intermittently. And I've yet to see an answer.

Perhaps time Adobe took a look at it?

thanks for any ideas and assistance,

Grant
