If you're using Windows Vista, you're not allowed to change Program Files, without being admin.
So either go to c:\Program Files\warcraftIII\Maps, and create the Test folder manually. Or right-click on World Editor and 'Run as Administrator'.
Or save your map someplace else.

I saved it in my documents but when i tried to open it it said my documents folder could not be found and check if the path is correct. I checked the path and I'm sure it was correct. I tried to copy and paste it to warcraft maps but it wouldn't work. I tried to create the test folder in the maps folder but it said access denied and i'm not using vista i'm using xp.
