just had the same situation....
Details: windows 10, latest illustrator, file is on a NAS box, save format is 'PDF compatible'
Illustrator is creating a .tmp file with a cryptic name but fails to rename that to the original name and does not state an error.I did a few tests on this machine (and restarted Illustrator first, then windows, to be sure) with a few files
Later I tried to edit the original problem file from my laptop - this worked.
Next I got myself a copy of procmon to find out more, but saving did work again.May I assume that the last steps in saving involve a system call to remove the old file and one to rename the temp file to the original name, and the return code of that operation is not checked for errors?
