Default RREAD ONLY FILES

When I open excel and word files used often they are now saying they are read
only or being used by someone else and I can only update them by saving with
a different name. What is causing this and how do I fix it?

Is your anti-virus software interfering? Set it to NOT scan file you are
opening.
