Thank you, I understand that on Windows, you cannot overwrite a file if it is
opened in another app. 

My question was that when this error message appears then let me have a chance
to close the file in the other application so that LibreOffice can try saving
again without re-computing the PDF.

This would spare the time the PDF creation takes. 

In bullet points:

Current steps:
- generate PDF export from LO (~ 1 minute)
- open in PDF reader
- change file in LO
- generate PDF export again (~ 1 minute)
- error message appears (I can click only OK, generated PDF is lost)
- close file in PDF reader
- generate PDF export again (~ 1 minute)

There are 3 times 1 minutes exporting timer. 

Instead, I would like this:
- generate PDF export from LO (~ 1 minute)
- open in PDF reader
- change file in LO
- generate PDF export again (~ 1 minute)
- error message with question: Do you want to retry? (keeping the generated PDF
in memory) 
- close file in PDF reader
- click "Yes, retry"
- save PDF from memory (~no time)

In this case, there would be only 2 PDF-generation sessions, which would save a
complete minute.
