WGET cookies permission denied

[badieg_44]

Hi!
I'm trying to use the tool wget to downdland several links from a text file, I've follow all steps from GES DISC, to create the pre-required files to use the command wget --load-cookies C:\.urs_cookies --save-cookies C:\.urs_cookies --keep-session-cookies --user=--ask-password -i url.txt
It runs, but at the end comes with the error "Cannot open cookies file 'C:/.urs_cookies': Permission denied"
And downlands the files, but not in netrc.
I don't know much about coding, and I wonder if this is the proper way to have paths in the file .dodsrc
HTTP.NETRC="C:\Users\MaTec\.netrc"
HTTP.COOKIEJAR="C:\Users\MaTec\.urs_cookies"

Hello,

The .urs_cookies error indicates that you do not have permissions to write the .urs_cookies file to the root directory on your machine (C:\). This is not needed to download the files, but allows authentication to be cached. The .dodsrc file is set up correctly, but is only required for downloading OPeNDAP subsets. To help diagnose the files not being downloaded as netCDF, could you please upload the contents of url.txt? There may be some missing command flags depending on the URLs in this file.

Thank you
