Are you facing this problem whenever you want to save any file?
Try restart your PC and see if problem persists?

Hello,

this could be specific to the folder name you are trying to save to.

Can you create a new folder and try saving to that location?

that would help to determine if the issue is saving to the D Drive or a specific location.

Hello,

Verify that you (or the user account you're logged in with) is the owner of the folder. Even if you granted full control to all users, ownership might still be an issue. To change ownership:

Right-click on the folder > Properties > Security > Advanced > Owner > Edit > Choose your user account and check "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" > Apply > OK.

enter image description here

Sometimes, even with proper permissions, Windows User Account Control (UAC) may prevent saving due to lack of administrative privileges. Try running your application as an administrator.
