SMAPI Hangs at Saving Endlessly, "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

Describe the bug
Random game-save events freeze and cause save files to corrupt permanently.
NOTE: I am submitting this in the stead of my friend, who is woefully ill-informed to deal with this. I set up the mods for them.
That said, I've never seen this particular bug before.

To Reproduce
Reproduction simply requires getting in and out of bed until the game hangs at saving... forever. (Doesn't stop rendering frames)

Additional details:
The game loads and runs perfectly fine, and saving works fine when it doesn't hang...which is at random, between days 1 and 4 usually.

Could possibly be an antivirus stopping the game from saving? They were having similar issues with vanilla too, they've told me

Yup, turns out it was an Antivirus software preventing the game from saving in general.
