I’m having the same problem. My Fmod 2.0.8 was working well than suddenly it was giving the error: " [“Error writing to……Make sure you have write permission to the file.”error-writing-to-make-sure-you-have-write-permission-to-the-file", so i unninstalled Fmod, and now i’m trying to reintall and i get this error message.

I solved it!!! It’s the antivirus. It was avast all along blocking Fmod, i just add an exception for Fmod in Avast and it solved all the problems. So check your antivirus.
