Unable to Upload Images on Local Windows Install

After trying many things with permissions, I found my problem.

I uses a plugin called Duplicator to move WordPress installs around from server to server, it handles changing URLS’s and Paths.

So in settings => Media => Store uploads in this folder it was setting the Full Filepath to my Uploads folder. I changed it to be relative wp-content/uploads instead of full like this E:/Server/htdocs/projects/sitename/www/wp-content/uploads and the problem went away!
