Can't see anything wrong there (of course I also see nothing confirming
that the helloworld directory lives in C:\Users\Max\Desktop\ but I guess
that's likely not the problem).
Can you open a cmd.exe (or however it's called these days) and run a
dir C:\Users\Max\Desktop\helloworld
so the path is confirmed, and then
type C:\Users\Max\Desktop\helloworld\helloworld.py
and
type C:\Users\Max\Desktop\helloworld\app.yaml
just to check if any of these shows problems the GUI might hide?
