I had the same problem
I tried all the variants suggested on the forums, it did not help.
Disabled antivirus. It worked
As a result, I changed the Firewall settings in the antivirus. Everything works now

Holy cow! The antivirus was it. I tried everything. Taking ownership of the directory. Setting security permissions to the directory. Ensuring the .exe files ran as administrator. Checking for disk corruption. Running a repair. Checking the registry settings. Checking the OneDrive folder. Modifying the Documents library to just have my one Documents folder. I even considered getting rid of my custom Documents folder and returning to the one that lives under my Windows user profile. But it turns out that Windows Defender (Win10) was blocking SWTOR from writing those files. So I added exceptions for launcher.exe and swtor.exe, and suddenly it all worked.
Note that this was for both the screenshots and the combat logs.
