Does the above transcript of my session give you any ideas about what I am doing wrong?
Just a thought, but do you get the same results for different tests of writability? Eg, can you create a directory or does ls > test.txt work?
There isn't a direct equivalent to touch in Windows so it would be worth checking that it isn't "touch" causing the problem rather than writability in general.
[Actually: rem > filename .. is a pretty close Windows equivalent to touch in this context, in case anyone ever needs one.]
