This message seems to be generated by LyX, and I suspect it occurs 
either because 
C:/Users/jcredberry/Dropbox/Sulan/Papers/DCHT/DCHT_2020_v3.lyx is locked 
or write protected or because somehow the directory is temporarily 
unavailable.

A little Googling turned up at least one report of Dropbox blocking 
access to files on a Win 10 PC that may or may not have been caused by a 
Win 10 update (in February). If you bump into this problem again, you 
might check the Dropbox icon in the system tray and see if it indicates 
that Dropbox is syncing. If so, that might be interfering with LyX 
writing the modified file.
