I may be on the wrong track here but you may need to de-select "Always
create backup copy" in Tools >Options >Load/Save >General ... Save

I read an .sxc spreadsheet from a USB stick, change a few fields and try

Get 'Could not create backup copy' message and no saving gets done.
Saving to normal harddiska works fine. 'SaveAs' to USB stick does work
normally and I can simulate 'Save' by doing 'SaveAs' but with the
original filename. That works too.
Any ideas how to use the normal Save??
Am I correct in thinking that 'Save' writes my document to a temporary
file and once that write is successful renames the temporary file to
become the new file?
I am worried about extra copies floating around as I write the file to
the USB stick exactly because the content is confidential.
Any clarification on this point might help me try to understand why a
backup copy is involved at all when I just try to save my spreadsheet.
