Restarting solved the problem it seems. dunno if the thread has any value left within itself.

I'm having the same error. I suspected a virus and found one, but after removal and restart the error is still there and I also get a dialog whenever I try to write to that folder telling me I need administrator privileges (which I have, so I click OK and it does the action - but still).
I'm currently doing a re-install to see if that helps.

Update: Reinstall let me run FAF from the installer, but closing and attempting to reopen FAF runs into the same error. I then went to faforever.exe and selected Run As Administrator, and now it works.
