Hi, I just upgraded to Tableau Desktop 2019.2. And this error message showing up most of the time when I refresh and save the workbook "Can't Save Workbook. The workbook you are trying to save uses an extract file that can't be updated...". If I refresh and save it again, error message will disappear, but next time the same thing happens.

Does anyone know what is causing this problem?

Error Message: Can't Save Workbook

    Greetings,

    This just happened to me. I figured out it was because I had done a File Save As to create a new version of a workbook. I had both versions open so it would not save the extract as I changed one workbook. I closed the original and then it saved without issue.
