When I add items to the repository and then try to save it doesn't save on the same file, rather it acts as though I chose 'Save as...' and opens a windows explorer to determine a new save location. What might be causing this? How do I force the original repository to retain the changes?
Thank you.

Re: Repository won't save properly
Hi,
It sounds as if the repository file is read-only during your attempt to save it? Typically, such behavior is caused by version control system, which locks the files. Do you edit repository via Studio (with entire solution loaded) or via standalone Recorder tool (with just one specific recording file loaded)? What version control system do you use?

Re: Repository won't save properly
I am using TFS 2015 and I generally edit with the entire solution loaded. Turns out restarting Ranorex wasn't enough but restarting my computer fixed the issue.
Re: Repository won't save properly
Ah yes TFS I too experienced some problems with TFS myself. I guess you are using Ranorex TFS integration? I believe these problems are related to MSSCCI provider used by Ranorex TFS plugin. I would recommend to stop using Ranorex TFS integration and do all TFS-related steps via Team Explorer. You will not only get rid of all mysterious problems, but it will also make your Ranorex experience significantly faster (especially with larger solutions). Unfortunately, the MSSCCI provider-based integration is less than optimal. But there is nothing Ranorex folks can do about it.
