Assuming you're on Windows, is this something that has started happening 
suddenly ?
Do you know of any recent config change made on the server ?

Its a bit intermittent too btw, it doesn't turn it into a shared copy straight 
away every time.. Sometimes I seem to have a good run where it doesn't 
sometimes every single time I try and save it complains..

Hey everybody,

I've been having a problem lately that I'm unable to save my scene as if I 
opened a shared copy. It says
"[scene] cannot be saved because it has been loaded as a shared copy.The main 
user is" and there is no user listed.

So I know what this window is, and I am suspecting the problem is that Im 
saving via a script that is located on the server, so when I run the script, 
maybe the SERVER is the new owner of the file? So locally I cannot save it?
That makes sense in my head, but if so, how do you avoid that problem, I've 
worked places with save scripts like the one I made and they didn't have the 
issue so hopefully there is a way around it..

I thought it was the deadline submission script as that does a 'save as' too  
and that's also located on the server - same problem potentially.

Cheers!
Simon
