Dear Matts,

Thank you for helping Shinhyo sort out his saving problem. Now we can do science! I appreciate your help (as someone who is less technologically inclined I was pretty lost as to suggestions). It was kind of you to take the time to work with him.

Thank you,

Liane

Dear Matthew,

I can certainly save the files onto a folder directly under the C: (although I have to point out that I had/have only English alphabets in the folder names).
Thank you very much. I appreciate your support.

Best,
Shinhyo

This probably isn't relevant, but Desktop is actually a folder under c:.
On my computer, it's C:\Users\MAMarcus.  I see that 'other Matt' concurs
with this and seems to be suggesting that your username may have
non-ASCII characters.  I'm guessing Korean.   Try making a new folder
under C:\ with only ASCII characters in the name.
