Hi David, A very disturbing situation to be in.
I think the first step is to narrow down the possible issues.

And what's the first report that's not saved ? Do you see anything particular about this one ? What if you remove this first report that's not saved from your original saved reports file (after making a proper backup of course) and restore this manually edited file. Can you now save your new report correctly ?
