Dim path As String = IO.Path.GetFullPath(SaveFileDialog1.FileName)
Dim writer As New XmlTextWriter(ToString(path), System.Text.Encoding.UTF8)
which give an error

Private Sub Button3_Click_3(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
Dim SaveFileDialog1 As SaveFileDialog = New System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog
SaveFileDialog1.DefaultExt = ".xml"
SaveFileDialog1.Filter = "XML files(.xml)|*.xml|all Files(*.*)|*.*"
SaveFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "desktop"

You didn't say what the error was. However, you need to remove theToString
(path
is, already a String).Dim writer As New XmlTextWriter(path, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8)

ToString(path) doesn't make sense. Use CStr() to convert stuff to strings. But that isn't necessary since it is already a string, so simply use path.
