Nope, all files are on the main internal disk....

I can't rule out that the problematic file was indeed open in read-only
mode,although that's unlikely.
The issue has never reappeared.
Thanks,Stefano

After looking at the code of the "Tools|Revision" submenu, the ONLY
REASON which could cause a grayed out "Do Not Keep Any Information About
Revisions" entry would be that you don't have write permissions for the
problematic file.
But when this is the case --at least on my Linux box-- A) an alert box
is displayed, B) the problematic file is opened in read-only mode and C)
the document tab displays a gray indicator at the right of the file name.
Was the problematic file stored on a document repository of any kind? Or
may be just on a Windows file share?

Sorry but I don't see how this weird behavior ("After deleting the
property file that file had that selection set to something else") could
happen without writing some custom Java code (i.e. a ".jar" file
containing a validateHook dynamically discovered and loaded by XXE
during the startup phase;
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/dev/validatehook.html).

Sorry but I'm not sure that this solved the issue for good.
