file permission error when trying to save to memory stick

[In desperation]

For some reason i am getting file permission error when trying to save to E:\
The memory stick still has plenty of free space. It will allow me to save to
desktop etc.

Never try to save directly from Word to any removable media. That
includes memory sticks, floppies, CD-RWs, Zip disks, etc.

Always save to the hard drive, close the document, and then copy it to
the removable media. The same goes for opening a document to edit it
-- first copy it to the hard drive, and work on it there.

Ignoring this advice, even when it seems to work, risks corrupting the
document, and sometimes the whole drive.
