What should I do if Filmora prompts that access was denied when downloading resources?

Potential Causes & Solutions:

Permission Conflicts
- If the default download folder is redirected to another disk:
  → Navigate to: Preferences > Folders
  → Change the default location to your system disk (typically C:)
- Ensure Filmora has write permissions for the selected folder
Cloud Folder Complications
- When using cloud-synced folders (OneDrive, Google Drive, etc.):
  → Grant explicit write permissions, or
  → Redirect to a local system disk via Preferences > Folders

Additional Steps:
• Verify the new folder path has proper read/write permissions
• Restart Filmora after making changes
