Thanks.

The bottom line is that I have no idea why Emacs 31 fails to write to
your S: partition.  (I note that the S: did not appear in the picture
from Disc Management that you included in the PDF file.)  Does the
same problem happen with all the other partitions you created there?

The problem seems to be in the function which writes to the file or in
the function which opens the file for writing.  However, I couldn't
find any changes in these two functions between Emacs 30 and Emacs 31,
so I don't know why it worked in the former, but not in the latter.
It might have something to do with the MinGW runtime which was updated
between the two builds, or something else I currently fail to see.

So at this point, unless my questions above give some clue, the only
way to investigate this further is for someone to step with a debugger
through the relevant C code and see why it fails.  If you are up to
this task, and can install GDB using pacman, I can help you with
instructions.

I will also note that no one complained about similar issues with
Emacs 31, so I tend to think it's something very specific to your
system, and the fact that it only happens with disk S: seems to
confirm that.  But the question is what is it in your setup that
causes these functions to fail.
