I am having difficulty saving ePubs after editing them. The error message I get is:

Code:

calibre, version 1.27.0
ERROR: Could not save: Saving of the book failed. Click "Show Details" for more information. You can try to save a copy to a different location, via File->Save a Copy

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\tweak_book\save.py", line 145, in process_save
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\tweak_book\save.py", line 155, in do_save
  File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\tweak_book\save.py", line 29, in save_container
  File "site-packages\calibre\utils\filenames.py", line 452, in atomic_rename
error: (5, 'MoveFileEx', 'Access is denied.')

I am tweaking books produced in InDesign, and am not using Calibre's library function. I have dropped the epub file on a shortcut to ebook-edit.exe, used the "Open With" dialogue box from the Windows shell, selecting that same executable, and used the Open Book from inside the program as well.

I was able to save books yesterday. The files are in a folder on the desktop, and I am using Windows 7. Any help would be appreciated!
