Error message when "saving target as"

I combined several small Word files, finished translating them and was just saving them as Word files again. The first two went fine, then I got the message

"Failed to save target content" and then in German "Storage medium structure (Datenträgerstruktur) damaged and unreadable"

Any idea what this could be? Which storage medium is Studio talking about? The hard disk? I'd really appreciate your assitance, last resort would be to handcopy the segments into a Word document or, which is probably better, usethe preview tool.

Interestingly, the first two files show in the window when STUDIO is trying to save the individual files, but they do not show up in the explorer. Very disturbing.

Thank you very much to anybody trying to help!

    What do you mean exactly by "combine"? How exactly did you proceed? Did you use the "Merge" option in project creation?

    I suggest you don't merge the files physically, but use the "virtual merge" option and open the multiple files together (in the view "Files", select several files, then right-click and select "Open for translation"). This will open all files in the Editor as one big file to work on without physically merging the files. As soon as you close the document in the Editor, the merge is gone. You still have your individual files.
