Description
I've been trying out File > Save RAM > Flush Save Ram and found that if the save file is locked, the command silently fails with no notice.
I've also had an exception thrown upon exiting a game through File > Close Rom because the SaveRAM is locked.
It would be preferable in both cases if a dialog box appeared telling the user that the file is locked for editing, and allowing them to try again or skip saving.
I'm using BizHawk Version 2.3.1 (x64) on Windows 8.1.
