On a thread in this group I read once that renaming the file (changing the
name of the tiddlywiki file) does the trick.
I do not know why that would work but it has usually worked for me (with
TiddlyWiki Classic).
The error message might come back, especially after I've tweaked and
changed a lot of tiddlers (worked with plug-ins and stylesheets), but then
I rename the file again.
I also make sure I close any other open instances of TiddlyWiki (also read
about that in this group) and even went so far as to reboot the computer at
times.
But renaming has worked very reliably for me.
Best,
Johannes
