All of a sudden (I love how these problems seem to start 'All of a Sudden') any changes I make to my 'settings' files under 'Program Files (x86) > Windower4 > plugins > settings > Timers' are not saving. I keep getting the message, "Save failed, Please check if this file is opened in another program." I've closed out Windower 4, Playonline and basically shut down everything I could and tried to save my desired changes but the same thing happens. I shut down and restarted the laptop and tried again, same thing. I've no clue what's going on. Anyone?
A few key points I noticed...
The default program for XML documents was set to 'XML Editor'. Anytime I opened the document with that program it opened within an Internet Exporer type browser window and I was unable to make any changes. I could only read the documents contents. I changed the default program for opening XML files to Notepad++ by right clicking on the Windower4 'Timers' file, clicking on 'Change' under the Generals tab, and manually locating and selecting Notepad+ as the default program for opening that file type.
Other Info
I'm using Windows 8.1
I was able to save files just fine before, suddenly I can't.
I installed no additional programs/software or the likes in my laptop that I suspect might be causing this problem.
This issue is 'suddenly' happening on BOTH my laptops (I have 2 exact same laptops with the exact same specs, exact same issue)
Ctrl + Alt + Delete displays no obvious running programs I suspect might be using the XML files in question.
None of the XML files within my 'Settings' folder within Windower4 are saving including Timers, WeatherMon, Silence, PetTP, Itemizer etc
I just tried disabling Wifi suspecting it might be some kind of file sharing restriction thing and tried saving the file offline but it didn't work.
I was able to save the file on my 3rd desktop computer (Windows XP) normally
