Service Manager 2019 - Error when exporting management pack

Question

This afternoon, when I tried to export a management pack from the SCSM 2019 console, I received the error below.
I have exported MPs numerous times without any issue.
The error talks about 'access denied' but I have full admin rights on the server. I am able to save other files to the same folder from different applications.

Hi,

For testing purposes, we could grant everyone full control to this folder.

Open the file explorer.
Go to the location of the folder.
Right click and select properties.
Click on Security
In the "Permissions" tab, add everyone and grant full control to the folder.
Click Apply.
