Installation on Windows 10

[Snarky Email]

   David,

   I did create subfolder but the same error pops up.  I definetly have
   full access to the folder and subfolder.  Is there any special first
   time steps that I could be missing?

   Snarky,

   It does seem very odd that GnuCash is unable to write to that folder.
   Can you save other documents to that folder?

   I would recommend creating a special subfolder for GnuCash data files
   as GnuCash will be creating a lot of temporary files in the same
   folder.

        When I try to save as xml I get this error:  GnuCash could not

        I do have full access on the folder.
        Any help would be appreciated.
