The problem is that you do not seem to have write access to create files
in "c:/Users/aloom/My Drive/home".

This is a bug in Org mode that it checks for write access there (we
check one parent directory too much).
I fixed the check on the bugfix branch.
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=ad0282533
The fix will be available in the next Org bugfix release (likely tomorrow).
