I am getting this error message when clicking on the save button saying: "Failed to save ?profile name?" Please check file permissions and make sure the name has no illegal characters.

I went in and assured that i will have all read and write permissions, yet I still get theis error and the profiles of slicing are not getting updated!

Can anyone help?
Using win 7 and Kiss ver 1.6.3 from Jul 7 2018

I have exactly the same error as the OP except on a Mac running Sierra OS I get a failed to save XXXXX.ini for each Profile.

I too have checked all the permisisons and filenames and they are all OK.

This pretty much prevents me trying Kisslicer which is a shame :( as a friend uses it in prefeence to S3d and Cura and it produces great prints.

Hopefully Admin or Devs will eventaully read this and find a solution.

All i can say, it must be a local problem with your PC .
I have used it now on win7, win10 and a friend runs it on ubuntu , current version

..what about trying y different OS in a VM for that ?

I personally think it is a bug in the Slicer software.
The chances of adding anything Windoze related to my system are zero as I moved away from that nausea of that OS years ago and will never go back to it.
