I’ve been using shotcut for a while now and have never had an issue with creating a new project but when i now a few months later try to create a new project it just says perhaps you dont have permission, i’ve already read through a post i saw on here about a similar issue but nothing recommended there seem help. I also googled my issue and it took me to protected folders but i dont have that enabled and even if i have it enabled shotcut doesnt show up as a program i can allow in the folder.
Im not that great with all of this so it might just be me being oblivious and not seeing a simple fix, but any help is greatly appreciated
What does “Projects folder” say? Did you check that place exists and is not a system folder of some sort? That is the location it is using.
What are you entering for “Project name?” You might be entering something that it is not acceptable in a folder or file name.
Finally, skip this and choose from the main menu File > Save As… and try to save something in a sane location such as Documents or Movies. Did that work?
