It is possible to have security permissons denying writing to the root of a drive.

Also, are you getting the data from notepad or something of the sort?

You probably need administrator permission to write to your e: drive. you can fix that like this, in solution explorer rightclick on My Project, then click on open. In the window that opens click on View Windows Settings and follow the instructions that are shown there. Hope this helps
