[Fixed] Windows 10, wont save/load from some drive roots

[Fixed] Windows 10, wont save/load from some drive roots
Windows 10 system, I have two hard drives, C and D. Wings 2.x(I have tried multiple versions up to and including 2.1) will not save or load anything from the root directory of my D drive, trying load gets a "Read failed: no such file or directory" message, and trying to save gets a silent failure. Trying to import an image gets a "Failed to load [filename]: unknown POSIX error".

But wait, it gets weirder! Firstly, saving to and loading from the root of C works fine(so long as I run as admin to avoid permissions issues). Second of all, if I copy an existing wings 2.1 file to D:\ I can open it. I can't import objs from D:\ still in that case. However, I can save from wings 2.1 to root so long as I am saving over an existing filename, even if it's a file I can't successfully load into wings 2.1.

Everything works without complaint in every other location in D:\ that I've tried it in besides the root, and the old 1.5.4 version I have also exhibits none of these problems.

Not exactly a hard bug to work around, but it had me thinking for a while that I was instead going to have to bug report a broken OBJ importer.

Edit: And now I see that this is the 2.0.? bug reports, not 2.?. Is this topic in the wrong place?
