<div>The file #DCHT_2020_v5.lyx# looks
like some kind of lockfile or tracking file that Dropbox writes
(maybe hidden), though that's only a guess. Hence, moving the
file would remove that thing. It's possible that saving it
didn't work because Dropbox thinks it's open on another machine.<br>

I can confirm that the #...# file is a lock placed by Dropbox to
avoid collisions. That said, I've never gotten a message from
Dropbox telling me it was deleting the lock file.<br>
