[SOLVED] Harddrive permissions, can't save to this location.

[Alexithymicaic]

Recently I've come across a problem saving files to my external ssd. I tried save a .txt file to my ssd today via my browser and it didn't work, this prompted a message saying "You don't have permission to save to this location, save to pictures instead?"

This is really annoying when saving files, and I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?

I use the browser Opera GX, though I've tried saving with another browser only to be prompted with the same error message.

(I'm on Windows 10)

Open Windows Defender Security Center
Click Virus & threat protection
Click Virus & threat protection settings

Scroll down to Controlled folder access
Toggle it off

Set file/folder access permissions to location, where you want to save your files.
You can assign full access permissions to your user. Or you can also assign full access permissions to all users.
