Looks like you're running GZDoom under a OneDrive synced folder, and seems, from other reports, sometime give problems.
Try to run the game outside Onedrive, like a C:\Games\Doom folder.

GZDoom was never designed to work with onedrive and onedrive does very wonky things to the filesystem that GZDoom doesn't expect, so it produces errors. This is a known issue and there currently is no will to fix it because the easy solution is just to move it out of the onedrive folder.
