Windows (Solved)Unable to save ... views???

[Energy Engine]

Hi,

So GMS 2 has all of a sudden stopped saving which in turn causes it to not run the project. When saving, I get the following error:



I'm not sure what its talking about with the views, but everything else appears to be opening fine.

In addition, the Output window shows several lines saying "SourceControlAction:SaveModel: Source Control Add Failed". The Source Control window shows several lines saying "The index is locked. This might be due to a concurrent or crashed process".

I've tried cleaning the cache and it does so successfully, but this doesn't fix the problem. Tried Resetting the Layout, same error. I can open a previous save file of the project and that saves without issue so it can't be a problem with GMS.

Is there any way to resolve this error with the "views"?

Thanks.

Try going to the Layouts menu and selecting "Reset Layout" then save. The "views" in these errors usually relates to the screen view and how the windows are laid out.

Thanks for the inpùt Nocturne. I did try resetting the Layout as I've mentioned in the op, based on what you said in another thread. Resetting the Layout then saving didn't fix the problem, but I believe the Save As command (instead of just saving) to save as a different project, managed to correct the issue.

Okay, that's good to know. Will remember that for future users who experiment this issue.

I had the same issue. It was related to git. Fixed by deleting .git\index.lock file.
