Getting this error message in Illustrator now after CC updates and Mac OS Update.

 

Adobe AI Version. 26.2.1

Mac OS Monterey 12.3.1

 

Saving files to a 6TB Seagate External Drive. This has been working for a year with no issues.

 

Just doing a general "Save" after making some revisions to the file.

Go to your Mac System Preferences/Security and Privacy and grant Illustrator Full Disk Access.

      Is this the same thing as privacy and security?

        YES


        My PC looks entirely different than what is shown in the video. I dont see system preferences. It only has system settings and then I can go into privacy and security. But everything Ive tried so far has not helped. Checked off the read and write permissions, etc. What can I do?
