Uhm, you're using a "OneClick"-image, right? The whole file io and
resources have never been tested on those.

Ok‽ That looks more like a Pharo issue to me. What does the following answer?
FileDirectory default entries
Can step through the code an check if something differently happens?
There are no white spaces or non-ascii characters in the file names
involved, are there?

Can you try that outside of a OneClick image and see whether it works there?
