Yep, the directory exists. And I used the same user that I used for
installing MaxDB in the first place. It is part of the Administrators group
and also has the "logon as batch job" right as required by MaxDB.

And then you need write permissions for the user under which the instance
runs. However, I have never used MaxDB on Windows, so there could be
something specific I don't know.
