Note the second attempt where OUTPUT is 'memory:' rather than 'test'. I also noted a ':' appended to 'memory'. Hummm. Wonder if 'test' should have a ':' ?

Looking at this, the value for output is a bit odd: 'test'.  This
should usually be a full path, e.g. "c:\users\nd\Desktop\all my
important stuff which i need\grid_final_rev2_revised.shp". I suspect
this is where the issue comes from, it's trying to create a file named
"test" in an unspecified directory which is likely somewhere you don't
have permission to write to.

Was this done through the processing toolbox? How did you obtain the
"test" value here?
