Run the AIR app as administrator and you can even write inside system32 folder of windows. That means anywhere, just anywhere.

You can write to a file with AIR only if the file is under "applicationStorageDirectory". This is the only folder that has write permision.

If some know more please correct me.

You can handle ioError event which FileReference dispatches when you don't have permissions to write into directory.
