### Please describe the problem.
When I try to create the repository with the suggested location `C:\Users\bbigras\Desktop\annex\` I get "Cannot write a repository there". I didn't see the program output any errors on the console. [screen capture](http://imgur.com/7ZUqqVQ)
It works if I change the path to `C:\Users\bbigras\annex\`.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
* run `git annex webapp`
* click `Make Repository`
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
