It could be you have a global template/add-in intercepting the Save
command.

See if you can use the Save command when you start Word using the /a
switch. For this go to Start/Run and use the following command:

winword /a

Note that there is a space before the forward slash.

If the Save command works then go to Tools/Templates and Add-Ins and
see if there are any global templates or add-ins listed. If so they
are located in one of your Startup folders. The location of the
Word\Startup folder can be found under Tools/Options/File Locations
and the Office\Startup folder can be found in the Office installation
path..

Take a look in each folder and if you find more than one file move
them one at a time and try duplicating the error after each file is
moved out of the folder until you determine which one is causing the
problem.
