I'm not able to access to Premiere 2026 because it doesn't have access to public folder, but when I head to Files & Folder it doesn't allow me to grant Premiere access to public folders.

I’ve attached two images of what I’m being shown for reference.

IF you are running with Admin privileges, then you can adjust this. Typically the first thing is to right-click the application’s .exe file, and under the options Windows gives, select ‘run as Administrator’ ... which fixes this for some people.

For others, they have to unselect that option ... I totally do not understand but that is the case.

Past that you can go to the Explorer (Windows file manager applet) and right-click the top folder and go through the process to change permissions for that folder tree.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...
