C# Access to the path is denied exception creating a file in Documents

I am trying to write a windows forms app that will write logs to a .txt file in:

Documents/subfolder/name.txt

I am able to create a the subfolder directory using

        string documentsPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
        string dirPath = Path.Combine(documentsPath, appFolderName, logFolderSubpath);

        if (!Directory.Exists(dirPath))
        {
            Directory.CreateDirectory(dirPath);
        }

        string fileName = "log" + DateTime.Now.ToString("_yyyy-MM-dd_hh-mm-ss") + ".txt";

        string path = Path.Combine(dirPath, fileName);

but when I try to create a StreamWriter:

StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(Path.Combine(path, filename));

where filename is just a name of a .txt file, I get the exception:

System.UnauthorizedAccessException
  HResult=0x80070005

I am trying to make my app write log files into the Documents directory because this is a program that will be used by multiple people and I want a constant place where I can write the logs to. So I need my program to be able to create the directory, to create the file inside it, and then write into that file! I would prefer not to do this in the same directory where the .exe is.

Maybe the user you are using doesn't have write permission on that folder. Try to add write permission for you user or simply run the VS as administrator. It should work
