I tested and have no problem saved from a file on my desktop.
I am on a Macintosh machine running Mac OS 10.11.6 El Capitan. I am running OpenOffive 4.1.3.
I am familiar with ‘invisible’ locked files from my use of InDesign, which creates a visible
locked file when it opens. (I am able to open and save InDesign files from my desktop without
crashing issues.)
The OpenOffice crashes that I suffer occur when I have opened an OpenOffice file that
/resides on my desktop /and then attempt to “Save-As” . . . see the attached screen shot for
the resulting error message.

It seems your problem is specific to your machine. More information is needed. Sounds like a
problem with your Mac, not with OpenOffice.
(As a side note, I do not experience this behavior with any other type of file.) If I move
the same OpenOffice file into a folder — /even a folder that is on my desktop/ — open it, and
do a “Save-As” into its location . . . the file saves, without any problems. /However, if I
try to save the same file to my desktop — OpenOffice crashes/.
