Default Cannot create session in Documents folder

I am a new user of Pro Tools 10, which came with my Eleven Rack. I had sessions set up in my Documents folder, but I deleted them after a Pro Tools crash. However, I am now unable to create a new session with the same name in the Documents folder. What am I doing wrong here? It is not a huge problem, but it just bugs me.

EDIT: It happens regardless of file name. So I just can't manage to create a session in the Documents folder anymore. Please help.

You shouldn't be recording to your operating system drive anyway. Recommended is a separate 7,200 RPM internal drive, eSATA or USB external drive.

Cheers,

I know, but I like to live dangerously. So what is keeping Pro Tools from creating a session in Documents?

Listen, I don't want to be a smartass. I just want to create my session in Documents, like it was. But Pro Tools won't allow me anymore. I didn't change any preferences.

Could be corrupt preferences -

Try creating, and logging onto another Admin account, see if you're able to.
