I am around at present.
If you go to "Window->Layouts->Save this Layout" it will show you the folder where these files are being stored. As a test you could try saving your layout as Test.lay and see if it allows you to save it or not. If you get a permission error either reinstall as admin or adjust the permissions on your folder.
