Hi. For some reasons, I decided to change the name of the directory my maya file is in. Now when I try to save the file, it shows the error as shown in the title. The error makes sense since the previous directory with the original name no longer exists......but how do I fix it now?

You should be able to resolve your issue by going to 'File->Set Project' and establishing the correct location for your files.

It is not working...I successfully reset the path inside "set project". But when I try to save it, the same error occurred with my old path showing up....

The problem is the spaces in the path i think ("asset 1" and "game building" should be renamed "asset_1" and "game_building"
