Error when opening a package: declined access to a path - Studio 2015, Windows 10

Hi.

Yesterday, when opening a package I got a very long error message. The first sentence was in Hebrew, but it meant "access to the path 'E:\System Volume Information' was declined". It seems that all subsequent issues in this error message refer to a path problem.

I can't see any such path. I tried to create a folder by that name in the specified location, but I get a message saying that it already exists. I guess it's hidden, but I can't unhide it.

At first, I thought the package was corrupt, but this also happened with other packages that I opened the same day without a problem.

I tried closing and opening Studio, restarting my laptop and uninstalling and reinstalling Studio. Nothing helped.

I didn't make any changes in Windows or in Studio, so I have no idea why this happened.

The only thing I can think about is using a different folder for one of the packages: When I tried to open that other package (the last one that worked), I got a message saying that the path name was too long. That happens when the file has a very long name, so I opened it in directly in my E: folder so the path name itself would be shorter (instead of a subfolder for that client), and it worked. After that nothing worked...

If it helps, here is the message itself:
