Fix :wq! Vi Error - E32: No file name (when write and quit)

If you are trying to save a file using :wq! command in Vi and you get an error - E32: No file name, well then the chances are that you are trying to write to a file, but you haven't created a file.

You may have simply opened the vi/vim editor using the command and not proving the file name.

Fix:

You will need to save the file using the command below.

Syntax:

:w {filename}

Example

:w {data.txt}

"{data.txt}" [New] 3L, 17B written

Now if you try to do :wq! you should not get any errors!
