II just got this error message in LrC:

In English:
Lightroom Classic does not have access to some default folders.
Lightroom Classic cannot provide access automatically. For more information on providing access, click ‘More information’. Lightroom Classic may not work properly if you continue without granting access.

How can I find out what privileges I have to provide to LrC? I have already granted Full Disk Access (due to an export issue yesterday), so I really don't know what might be the problem. Sorry - I'm a Mac Newbie. ‍

I was the original poster. After the previous thread, I clicked the checkbox labeled (im Deutsch) "nicht erneut anzeigen". and the message has not returned

You're a lucky one. I clicked it, too, on the assumption that my question above would be answered there. Unfortunately it was not, but the error message still appears from time to time (rarely).
