Hey there! This doesn't happen every time, but occasionally, when saving an HTML or other file, when uploading to a remote server automatically, I get this error:

Don't upload to server on save. It's too risky.
Best advice, use Ctrl+S to save. And then Ctrl+Shift+U to upload.
This gives your computer processor a bit more time to complete the save routine before it attempts to launch the FTP engine.

Why is uploading to server on save "risky?"

'Cuz we all make mistakes. If you accidentally save over a file and upload it to server, you could potentially erase the only good copy of the file you have. That option is an accident waiting to happen. I kind of wish DW would remove it.

I can definitely see why that could be an issue. I'll definitely be turning it off.
