This sounds like your AV program is restricting access to your Documents folder.
If so, you may have to "whitelist" Rainmeter to alllow write access to the folder. Depending on your AV settings, you may have to whitelist every Rainmeter executable (such as Rainmeter.exe, RestartRainmeter.exe, SkinInstaller.exe, and uninst.exe)....or it may be able to select a folder.
If you are using Windows Defender, check if "Controlled folder access" is turned on. It is located in Windows Security\Virus & Threat Protection\Ransomware Protection, then select "Manage Ransomware Protection". From here you can turn off "Controlled folder access", or select "Add an App through Controlled folder access" and select the Rainmeter executables listed above.
If you are NOT using Windows Defender, you will have to find some documentation with your AV vendor.
Hopefully that will help.
