You have forgotten to put a \ after folder test. When you substitute the image path, you will get something like C:\Users\danie\Desktop\testtest.png". So now python thinks that the image should be saved as C:\Users\danie\Desktop\testtest.png" which you don't want. You want C:\Users\danie\Desktop\test\test.png"

Solution:

Just add a \ after test

images = r"C:\Users\danie\Desktop\test\"
plt.savefig( images + "test"+ ".png")
