    On Windows Server 2008, the location of AppData is normally c:\ProgramData. Try creating the c:\ProgramData\Secon\Generator folder first, and your script should run.

    Also, try running the script using an administrator account, or changing the permissions of the generator folder to allow the user running the script to write to the directory if you still have problems
