g'day guys,

i have a small error with my program where when i try to save to file an error occurs which says "A required privilege is not held by the client." I not sure how to fix this as i am running it off of my laptop which only i use and unless i have set up administrator status correctly i dont know what is going on.

I posted my code below just to be sure

Cheers.
