That strange path seems to indicate that something is either preventing Sigil from writing to is scratch/temp space or that somehow TEMP on your windows box has issues? This is so contrary to any behaviour I have seen on Sigil that I find things are really strange.

Something (antivirus?) seem to be preventing Sigil from making and using the temp files its needs even on a fresh start-up. On boot Sigil will create an empty epub but that "/OEBPS/..." seems to be indicating an incomplete path of some sort where the drive and path to the Temp folder has somehow been set to a null string instead of a real path to a proper Temp area.

DiapDealer, do you think it would help if we start fresh, but set Sigil's TEMP on windows to some local folder she definitely has full write/read access to somewhere in her home directory just to rule out permissions issues?
