SQL Developer throws below error when exporting data to excel. "Validation Failed : Save as target c:\users\476026\desktop is not writable"

In fact, i tried multiple version of version as noted below, but issue still remains.

sqldeveloper-4.0.0.13.30-no-jre

sqldeveloper-4.1.0.17.29-no-jre

sqldeveloper-4.1.1.19.59-no-jre

Even, i deleted the data from below directories just to see deleting works. But it was of no use.

C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Roaming\SQL Developer

C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Roaming\sqldeveloper

SQL Developer working normal couple of days ago. Not sure, what went wrong and causing this issue. Request to help on this

Howdy, Stranger!
