P: Save For Web error A write permissions error has occurred Photoshop 22.1.1

Hello,

 

I am using the PS 22.1.1 version and when I try to save for web I get the error. "Adobe Save For Web Error A write permissions error has occurred " 

 

Any help?

Photoshop still not able to <Save for web> with Dropbox backup enabled. Fiddly and inconvenient to disable.

Workaround : In Photoshop <Save for web>, Click <Preview> button bottom-left; your animated GIF will open in your default browser, right-click the gif in the browser and <Save image …> either to Downlaods or nominated folder.

Same issue here, no matter where I try to save.
I'm on OS Big Sur and I updated to Photoshop 2021 ten days ago, but haven't used the save for web function until today. Very frustrating. I need to save some gif for a newsletter going out tomorrow.

Hi, are you trying to save it to a protected folder maybe?
