It looks like your configuration file cannot be written for some reason. This issue is causing both the error during shutdown and the error when adding a RAM disk.

To fix this problem, please try the following steps:
  1. Quit the RAM Disk app to stop it from running
  2. Press Win + R and enter %PROGRAMDATA%\SoftPerfect
  3. Delete the "RAM Disk" folder
  4. Restart the RAM Disk app
