Those modern computer sensors are predated by ones originally installed in printers decades ago. They were pretty good at detecting either the importance or urgency of printing a document and would cause the printer to fail completely or print "ASCII garbage" (ASCII: Automatic Sensing for Corrupting Important Information).

Is that how, a few weeks ago, the computer knew I was in a hurry and the windows updating message said "This is going to take a while"? The sensors were on extreme alert that day.

Patty:

For years, passive-aggressive hardware engineers have designed AI-driven "Critical Detector Sensors" into our computers.

This ensures system failure severity increases proportionately with a user's anxiety about untimely interruption of his/her work.

Stepping beyond the sensor's range (e.g. out for a hot dog) cooled the sensor and allowed your innocent software to do its job.

Happy to help! : )

I stepped outside to buy a hotdog. When I came back, there was a dialog box asking if I wanted to save Book1 and another to save Book2. So it did work. I'm not sure why it won't save as the file I designated in the beginning, but it did work so I'm happy.

Thanks,
Patti

Maybe a workaround, but it works
A couple of week ago I had a big spreadsheet too, which did not work.
Export the file as a CSV and open it with Excel
