Would be easier to address your issues if it weren't hidden between random babble and emotes.

Anyway, try giving the editor and the game Adminstrator permissions in settings.

c:\program files (x86)\program files (x86)

there's your problem

Get rid of your wc3 installation and throw your pc/device to the wolves.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Get rid of your wc3 installation

Tried that several times , the thing always finds a way to come back.

If you are so lazy as stated in your signature, why have you then taken the time to fill that post with random crap, making it less likely you can get a proper answer, and made a copy of your program files directory? Also with this being your first post, it would have been a good idea to give a slightly better impression.

Also this is in the wrong section, and the title is misleading.

As for the problem.. move the damn thing.. get another editor.. reinstall the game by buying a new CD key.. and this time register it on the Blizzard site to ensure you can't lose it..

Right click Warcraft III folder, select properties then Security tab. Recursively change it so that your user account has "Full Control" over all files and folders in that folder.

It cannot create the temporary folders/files needed while saving a map because the user you are running World Edit with lacks the required permissions over the folder it is trying to use. This is common with Windows 7, 8 and 10 machines as their policy of having Program Files be administrator access only for security reasons is incompatible with how Warcraft III works. The fix is to simply break that policy by manually giving the user account Full Control (and all other permissions) over that folder.

Additionally if World Edit is run in administrator mode it has full control over the files. However this is a lot worse than simply giving the user account full control over the program folder. One should avoid running programs in administrator mode unless absolutely necessary (usually debug and server processes).

It is generally considered good manners to avoid writing in all capital letters. Capital letters do have a grammatical meaning in the English language. Not that they teach this in High School anymore as they are too busy not teaching you than actually teaching you how to write and speak English which is kind of sad.

Yea.. except I believe this was actually meant to be a question. Hopefully he got DSG's answer.
