Some users encounter the issue that files cannot be saved sometimes. It's due to the share parameter in CreateFile() set as 0, which makes sense for preventing other process from accessing to the file being written. However, when Notepad++ tries to write the file, it opens the file for writing. If at that moment the file is already opened by other program and the share flag is zero, then the system is instructed to deny opening the file on share conflict and the open fails. Setting share parameter to "FILE_SHARE_READ" instead of 0 solve this problem. Fix #10751, close #10765
