    I made a post earlier today, Its just I cant write new files or directories in my user group.
    File permissions is the big issue.

    sudo chmod 0777 *
    try this!

    You can also chown. So if its your user files you can change the owner as well. making something 777 can be dangerous as it allows all users even bad actors to access and the file. if you do an ls -al it will show the owners of the files. If it says root only root can access it. sudo chown user:user -R /directory and bam you will have access as that user you choose.

    hope this helps

    That's a VERY bad idea, and not recommended.
