Write Permissions Error in Photoshop 2023 when using Save for Web but not when using Export As

Hi,

I've been having difficulty on new Mac using 'Save for Web' to save files, experiencing a Write permissions error. Do not have an issue with the same file when I use 'Export As'.

I do not have Dropbox installed.

I have files saved locally, and they do back up to our MS OneDrive

Any thoughts?
Monterey: 12.4 
PS: 24.1.0

Hi @Maud28333671gadw go to Apple System Preferences/Security and Privacy/Full Disk Access - make sure Photoshop is listed and checked (active) then relaunch PS.

If that does not resolve what happens if you try to save direct to your desktop and not the synched One Drive folder?

Hi Kevin, thanks for your answer, unfortunately it still doesn't work and the same thing happens when I try to save it locally... 😕

You've confirmed PS is listed and checked in the Apple System Preferences?

[Maud28333671gadw]

Yes it is, I added it and relaunched the software.

There was a previous post where the user disabled syncing on their cloud service and it restored write permissions. That was dropbox and Gdrive, not sure the same applies with OneDrive.

Hi Kevin, obviously it was a smilar problem. I simply disconnected one file from One Drive and it worked. 

Thanks a lot for your help!
