I got around this problem by going to the following directory
"C:\*ProgramData\Microsoft*\Wlansvc\Profiles"

Contained in this directory is a directory called "Interfaces". I
changed the name of the "Interfaces" directory to "Interfaces_old". I
went back to edit the Wireless profile and it saved my changes - there
was no 'Access Denied' error anymore. Saving the wireless profile
recreated the "Interfaces" directory and everything worked fine.

If you can't see the "C:\ProgramData" directory, you have to go into the
Control Panel, double click "Folder Options", click on the "View" tab
and then click on "Show hidden files and folders". Click OK to close
the window.
