Framemaker cant write the file F:/ or C:/

i am sending right now

3 files that are causing the issue*****

using the newest version 2020 framemaker V.16.0.1

How can i set this up to frequently autosave, its funny you say that because when i had this issue originally i used the adobe help and they told me no such thing existed. i read the manual from framemaker from time to time. havent had alot of time to dive into it lately. 

i noticed under the security settings nothing was absolute full control for all users, so i updated the information to full control for every user that appeared. I add them by copy, i dont want them added a reference because file locations may change. i am able to locate files quickly because they are organized into seperate folders. i am now wondering if changing the security settings to full control will help the issue. it still doesnt explain how it resolved the last time by removing some .png files.

alot of times i copy the the png grahic and add it to 20 pages, i dont use a master page because sometimes i change the directional arrow of the .png file. 

very strange...

i believe i have full rights, i am the only person with framemaker..the last time i ran into this problem in a manual i went and removed these arrow icons because i noticed it started glitching up, in this current document i am adding like 40 photos off a shared folder i copy into document from the source file on the PC ( kind of alot going on here ). The elapsed time from the last save until i had the issue was 1.5 hours, i could save the document as a .mif file, but when opened the mif and tryed to resave the document back to a .fm file that would not worked. i read the mif washing but it will take me longer to figure that out then to redo the work and lose about 1 hour.

I am saving this file on the F:/ in hopes i dont have the issue arise again, i am adding the same content over again so maybe i can find out what file is causing the issue if i save every page and avoid placeing that file into the document.  I will update when i figure this out, in the process of trying to save the file in various ways framemaker quit responding so i am starting from the last save. i am going to keep updating this, being this is the second time i have had this issue in about 5 weeks.

*i am wondering if everytime i have this issue its steming back to a corrupted .jpg or .png file. i incorporate hundreds of files into these 100 page documents. its a service manual for automated equipment so it always contains alot of information. 

no matter what file i try and write to i am geting the issue, C:/ F:/ all of this work is being done on the computer hard drive..

Hey Linsims,

Interesting you bring this up, in these service manuals i produce for equipment i use hundreds of pictures, 3-d models and png images. I have to be very careful i always select (copy into document) because i have had alot of issues when selecting (import by reference). i have noticed in several manuals i have done the image reference will be lost-even if the file has not moved. I didnt notice the issue arrise after i was copying and pages the same image. a computer screen icon onto multiple pages of the document. I wonder if maybe that image was imported by reference initially then i copied. Then moving the .fm file from one ssd to another ssd to the C:/ drive caused some kind of weird conflict. In future document this series of events would not happen again. I think i am going to erase the last graphic import pngs i inserted before this issue arrose with the particular document. Once i do that and re-save i will update this case

when i close the document without saving, close framemkaer , re-open framemaker, re-open the document , make a suttle change and resave it saves fine. Its very weird, it now becomes inconvienent because this file(service manual) is nearly complete and i will have to save every 5mins to prevent any loss of data at this point.
