I'm seeking a way to simply just hit "save changes" and not have to navigate to the actual file folder and overwrite it.

What browser, platform and version are you using?

There's been quite a bit of discussion about this lately.

See the thread FirefoxESR is best option for TiddlyWiki now -- Action & Opinion

If you've gone past Firefox 52, and don't like the default save mechanism, then currently the options seem to be

Firefox ESR*
Firefox Nightly Unbranded*
Pale moon browser (haven't tested lately)
TiddlyServer
Node.js server **
NoteSelf

Hopefully I have captured all the options.

Good luck,
Mark

* Both of these versions will then allow you to use
** Doesn't serve up images

There is TiddlyDesktop, too: http://tiddlywiki.com/#TiddlyDesktop

If you open your TiddlyWiki in TiddlyDesktop, saving works as desired, and backups are created, too.

Cheers,

I'm using Chrome 59, and the latest version of TiddlyWiki Classic.
