You don't currently have permission to access this folder

As Rollis13 said - What is the path of the folder? If it is in 'My Documents' then you should be able to access it and save to it.

Another thing to try is to 'Take Ownership' of the folder. See Just a moment...

The path is:

E:\Microsoft Office\WINWORD\CRASH\w&cms\June 13

It is not "My Documents"

I tried using the tutorial "How to Add Take Ownership to Context Menu in Windows 10, but when I right click on the folder, it does not give me the "Take Ownership" option.

I need a simpler way to get access to my folders.

Maybe you didn't exactly do what was explained in the links I indicated (with .reg file or manually). Don't you think that out there there are maybe hundreds of persons happy with "Take Ownership" (like I am).
I can't help you with your PC, I can only show you what can be done.
