Hi Peter,
Try starting CHIRP by right-clicking the CHIRP icon and choosing "Run as administrator" and see if that works.

Actually, this could also be a common problem with Python under Windows: if there are non-standard characters (such as umlauts) in the file path, then you might run into trouble. If you have Chirp in a path containing any umlauts (äöüÄÖÜß), then your only choice is to relocate Chirp to a folder in a path free of such charcters. There is an error message in the log which suggests that this might be the case ("ERROR: We hit bug #272 while working with unicode paths." - by the way, this refers to ticket #272 in this forum).
It also could be that you already have an image with the same name on your hard drive, and it's read-only. That's rather unlikely, but check for it.
Please let us know whether the suggestion provided by Jim or the two ones provided here help.

Hey Bernhard !
The path CHIRP is stored is C:\Program Files (x86)\CHIRP
No umlauts used...
