Looks like Tool doesn't have the necessary rights to write to your Halo CE folder. Re enable UAC if you disabled it and edit the permissions of the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition directory to allow programs to read/write.
Hope this helps! (Info got from our glorious moderator Dennis). |

Your using a shortcut, use tool.exe directly instead. (It has to do with account permisions as Alex said before)

Didn't you have open another program using the same directory? Perhaps something running without your notice?
