Error when saving

#1

I have just found SublimeText and love it!

Alas I have trouble saving files. I get this error a lot, no matter what file I open:

Error: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

If I open the same file in Notepad or Wordpad, I can save, so I think this must be a bug in SublimeText.

Try setting atomic_save to false in your preferences.

I don’t know why it’s not, but there is an issue about this. github.com/SublimeTextIssues/Core/issues/379

Turns out it’s default false now (from 3072). Excellent, no more complaints from Windows people on this issue.
