In my case, below solution worked.
Root Cause:
After checking in the Designer workspace log file (C:\Users\hukam\workspace101.metadata.log), I found below message:
!ENTRY com.softwareag.is.vcsintegration.showfiles 4 0 2018-03-16 14:32:13.093
!MESSAGE C:\SoftwareAG101\IntegrationServer\instances\default\packages\MyTestSuiteDemo: A required privilege is not held by the client.
!STACK 0
java.nio.file.FileSystemException: C:\SoftwareAG101\IntegrationServer\instances\default\packages\MyTestSuiteDemo: A required privilege is not held by the client.

=============================================================================
it clearly states the reason i.e. “A required privilege is not held by the client”.
Resolution:
I started the Designer as Administrator (i.e. right click on Designer icon and then choose option ‘Run as Administrator’), it started working for me :).
