Mac OS X Catalina blocking me from exporting to folder...?!!

I'm trying to work, not monkey with preferences popping up in my face and I accidentally selected 'Don't Allow' to an alert box similar to this one:

Now I can't publish files in Animate...The instructions in this page are bull...There's no apllication prefs in System Prefs that I see. Where is the Application Support folder or whatever that I need to delete that has this crap? I don't want to have to reinstall my whole OS in order to use Animate. This sucks. 

Has anybody had this happen before? I have to get this work done today and this is the first time I'm genuinely pissed at Apple. Their "security" is keeping me from working with no resolve. 

Thanks for reading.
