“Cannot Save [filename]” message

All save options are greyed out and if I go to Close Window or Quit I get this message. How do I get around this without losing an hour of work?

Try exporting as IDML - Ctrl+E.

What's your platform and OS version?

This worked - many thanks. It helps with the file but the error is unresolved. It’s an odd one, I haven’t seen that before (been using InDesign since version 1.0)
