Hi anonymous user,
Did you get any error message?
You could try to run the following PowerShell script to enable save site as template in SharePoint 2013.
$SiteURL ="http://sp/sites/yoursiteurl"
$web = Get-SPWeb -Identity $SiteURL
#Enable Save Site as template option
$web.SaveSiteAsTemplateEnabled = $true
$web.Update()
