Assigned Access - restricting users access to folder other than Downloads

I am trying to create separate AssignedAccess .xml files for both Win10 and Win11 to be deployed using provisioning packages and I want to grant access to 1 custom folder C:\ClientFiles on the device.

rs5:FileExplorerNamespaceRestrictions

<rs5:AllowedNamespace Name="Downloads"

</rs5:FileExplorerNamespaceRestrictions>

I've seen a lot of examples on how to restrict access to the User's Downloads folder using the xml code above, but I can't get it to work for anything other than Downloads.

There is not documentation or video showing how to do this for a custom folder.

Is this even possible?
