Save

Saves any changes you've made to the current Active file. If you haven't specified an active file in the Data window, you will be prompted for a new filename to save your changes to.

All changes will be saved to a plug-in file (FILENAME.esp) based on the current master file.

Note: Plugin files cannot contain any reserved characters, such as "(" or ")", or when attempting to select them the loader will not recognize them as valid plugins. To remove this error, simply rename the plugin to not contain reserved characters.

Another Note: If you have UltraMon running for duel monitor support you may not be able to save. You will see the error message "You must close all open Dialog Boxes before saving." This is likely because UltraMon adds a small button on the top of every window, next to minimize, that moves a application window to the other monitor. You can probably turn something off in the program settings to stop that, I just exit UltraMon when I'm ready to save, then turn it back on.
