Doesnt have the permision to save the file

TheOneAndOnly · 2023-09-28T20:04:56.457Z

So I have been working on a Window Application and start working on a way to save the settings in a file. When I tried creating and saving this file by using ``` doc.Save("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Hoi4ModdingTool");``` I get the error that it doesnt have the right permissions for that. What should I do to fix that?

The exact function I trying to run is as following:

C++
public void SaveSettings()
{
    var doc = new XDocument();
    using (var writer = doc.CreateWriter())
    {
        var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SettingsData));

        serializer.Serialize(writer, this);
    }

    doc.Save("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Hoi4ModdingTool");
}

C++
public void SaveSettings()
{
    var doc = new XDocument();
    using (var writer = doc.CreateWriter())
    {
        var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SettingsData));

        serializer.Serialize(writer, this);
    }

    doc.Save("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Hoi4ModdingTool");
}

C++
public void SaveSettings()
{
    var doc = new XDocument();
    using (var writer = doc.CreateWriter())
    {
        var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SettingsData));

        serializer.Serialize(writer, this);
    }

    doc.Save("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Hoi4ModdingTool");
}

C++
public void SaveSettings()
{
    var doc = new XDocument();
    using (var writer = doc.CreateWriter())
    {
        var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SettingsData));

        serializer.Serialize(writer, this);
    }

    doc.Save("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Hoi4ModdingTool");
}
