Can't save files on Windows 10

[Difference]

In Windows 10 (Pro), this fails. I've tried GetPrefsPath() too, and it fails too. CreateDir() works.

Using std..

Function Main()

    Local buf:= New DataBuffer(100,ByteOrder.LittleEndian)
    Local res:= buf.Save("C:\temp\mybuf.dat")
    Print "Saveresult is: " + res
    
End```

Can you try with forward slashes? Backslashes are still causing issues - will get it fixed ASAP.

Yay! Forward slashes fixes it. Also works for SDL_GetPrefsPath files.

Issue could be closed.

Issue could be closed.

Why? Has it been solved and tested by yourself or are you referring to the fact there is a workaround for the issue?

The code above works with backslashs or forward slashs under Windows 10, the problem being the save path is protected by the system (the C: drive for exemple) and refuses to write. The generated executable of sample works if it's run as administrator.
