Beyond the Basics Cannot save files as .dxf. No longer working?

    Hello, I was able to save a copy as .dxf R14 until last night.

    Since then, suddenly it has started telling me it could not save the dxf file.

    I thought it was a file problem but it appears to not even save a simple test.

    I tried repairing the installation but nothing has changed.

    Am I doing something wrong or how can I get this to work?

    See attached file and screenshots.

     

    Best regards

    I have since had someone else look at a file of mine on their computer and Inkscape installation. They can export it successfully as dxf. with exact same settings I use.

    But the same file here still produces the same error as****.dxf could not be saved.(See screenshot in previous comment)

    Edit: I have now uninstalled Inkscape and deleted the remaining Inkscape Folder in Program files as well as the folder under C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\inkscape

    After a re-install, it still remembered my recent files and it is still not working for exporting .dxf
