[BlindRUG] WriteR save not working as expected

Hello BlindRUG,
I am having some confusing trouble with WriteR... I have started from scratch with a new install of R and all associated things and still this is happening though it resolved many other issues! In WriteR when I try and save the document, either using keyboard shortcuts or menus, it does not save. When I run Save As it brings up a window and asks for a filename etc. as expected and there is no error but it also doesn't save. The only way I can save is by quitting WriteR. When I do this it asks me if I want to save and if I say yes then it will then save the document. However, this leads to a lot of quitting and re-opening the document! This interrupts the workflow of being able to save, render, view. Is this something anyone has seen before? It is quite puzzling and I don't know where to start with what it could be.
I am about to introduce WriteR to a student and I am hoping they don't meet a similar issue! I will update whether they do or not and any differences I can see between the systems if I can.
Thanks,
Emma
