Whenever I try to save a certain project, an error pops up and it says: “Trying to rename a file to be ScratchFile.sb and it already exists.” Then, I'm given the option to Delete Old Version, or to Cancel. When I choose to delete the old version, I get the error again. When I choose it again, I get the error again. And again. And again. So, I have no choice but to cancel and not save it. What do I do? Can I still save it?

What browser and OS are you using?

Oh! Sorry, I should have mentioned this error occured in Scratch 1.4.

Are there other projects with the same name? Are you trying to save a copy or overwrite an existing one?

Well, I saved the project before, and now I want to save it under the same name again, so, I'm try to overwrite and existing one.

In that case, just doubleclick on the project you want to save it over. Try that and see if it works.

Hmmm…
Nope. When I try that, I get the error. when I click Cancel, there's a pop-up that says: Saved failed, Is the folder read-only?
…so now I'm sad.

As a last resort, try saving it to another folder.

I also get a error, when to save the project.
