RPG Maker XP games use the game folder as a save directory. Moving the game elsewhere won't help.
Check the game folder's properties to see if Read Only is ticked and change that if it is.

I think I'm seeing it now. It looks like you're trying to run it straight from the .zip file. RPG Maker games won't work properly like that.
You need to unzip all the game's files to somewhere you've made yourself, otherwise it just won't function.
For example, C:\Games\Roundscape_Adorevia_v.5.8B
