What file system is it? Is your C: drive SSD/HDD or a USB drive?

This is on the drive on an SSD. I kept getting this issue so I switched to VSCodium for now.

I had the same problem too. It seems that the saving operation is done, which was checked by reopening the file without saving successfully. However, it is still annoying because I am used to saving regularly.
