How do I fix the error that I don't have permission to save files to this location on my virtual disk?

Question

Hello!

I have a problem, when I try to save files, an error pops up telling me that I don't have permission to save files to that location on my virtual disk. I have already moved the "Downloads" and "Desktop" folders to the virtual disk, I plan to move the rest later.

translation: You do not have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission. Would you like to save in the [username] folder instead?

Now I tried the following steps:

• Went to the properties of my user folder.
• Checked "Replace all permission records of the child object with those inherited from this object" and clicked "Apply".
• Restarted the computer.

But after that the problem was not solved, when I try to download the file through the browser, the window appears by itself where I need to download and the same error appears. I went through all the previous steps again, but the result was the same.

I don't know what else to do and I might be doing something wrong.

Please advise me how to fix this problem properly so that the files will download and save as before.

Sorry for the misunderstanding and thanks in advance!

Hi,

Can you create files manually in the folders? Does this only happen to files downloaded by the browser? If yes, check the user of the browser process in task manager and see if has the right permission on your folder.

I'm really sorry, I meant to say download and save any files to my virtual disk. I simply did it that way:
