Research direction
Start with electrum/util.py at get_new_wallet_name(), then follow the callers in electrum/gui/qt/installwizard.py and electrum/gui/qt/init.py shown in the traceback. Investigate how the Windows OSError is reached when the wallets directory is corrupted; done should mean the crash path has a defined, tested outcome, though the issue provides no reproduction steps or expected behavior.
