Describe the bug Albion-online-stats fresh installation fails to start on Windows 10. When launching from command promt, instead of launching, an error on permission denied for albion-online-stats.cfg (which does not exist and is being created).

One important additional piece of information. I installed for "all users in the computer", not just for myself. When installing with the radio button for "only for me", then the permissions allow creation of the file.
