Fortunately, this issue has been resolved based on the support from bobpeers: https://community.rapidminer.com/t5/RapidMiner-Studio-Forum/Write-Tableau-Extract-error/m-p/32981#M23403. THANK YOU!

A new path from the step 4 (document: Using the Tableau Table Writer” )https://docs.rapidminer.com/latest/studio/how-to/data-export/tableau.html should be also added to the system variables, not only to the user variables. This info has not been mentioned in that document.  

C:\Users\<yourusername>\Documents goes also to System variables.

It would be very helpful if this document was updated with this info.

Thanks for your help! Best regards.
