So I try uploading a file/picture to a website I frequent, but suddenly got this today.

[File Name]
You don't have permission to open this file.
Contact the file owner or an administrator to obtain permission.

The thing is, I AM the admin. I've given Opera GX full permissions but still get this pop up. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Same issue in a test standalone installation?

@ANewRecipeh Sometimes this happens if the browser is trying to open a shortcut instead of the real file. Try moving the file to your Downloads or Documents folder and upload again. If it still doesn’t work, clear site data or check if antivirusis blocking it.
