I can't save, I just created a project, I have it finished but I can't save it, error # 3001, I didn't try changing the path 7 times and it keeps coming out, I'm on Windows, I don't know what to do anymore.

I will have paid 18 usd to only do and not save ...?

We handled this over email but I'll respond here too for others with the same problem.

Error 3001 means "File or directory access denied". Something is preventing the application from saving the file. This could be that the user account doesn't have rights to write to the location, or other software can be interferring. Google Drive has caused some issue in the past while syncing.

Things you can try:
- Save to a different location (Documents/Desktop/another drive)
- Check if your antivirus software is blocking the application (I know with AVG you need to explicitly allow PE disk access)
- Run the application as admin to see if that helps (if so then it's likely a problem with permissions)
