Solution 1

your app doesn't have write access to the "program files(x86)" directory

that hasn't been allowed since Vista ISTR - it's bad practice

if it's a temp file, create it in the temp directory?

and make sure you delete it when you're done

make the installation package to put the files in the tmp folder

or in app data

no - your original problem is that you're trying to write to the sample.xml file, in your install directory - which you don't have write access to

So, create the sample.xml file somewhere you DO have write access to, my example was the temp folder, but appdata is equally viable
