Can you be more specific?
Game, operating system etc. You didn't fill out the template at all

It is with the Android Program, I already uninstalled it and cleared cache,
but it keeps giving me an error, example: /Storage/emulated/0/easyrpg/games
it is not readable

I don't know how to fix it

Try uninstalling the app, then reinstall. It will ask you for permissions to read the "storage". you must confirm this prompt. Then it should work.

I guess this has been solved by now.

I have the same issue and it's more than likely caused by Android 11's new forced scoped storage

[Ghabry]

k will reopen it and try to verify it in an Emulator. FU Android

@BlisterB I heard you love Android :P

Looks like one can opt-out via requestLegacyExternalStorage but is unclear how long this will work.

By default you can only read/write now the app scoped storage which is _terrible_ because _all_ the data in there is _deleted_ when uninstalling the app m(.

For accessing other stuff they recommend the MediaStore Api but this can only read files, not folders. So not even usable by us o_O

The mediaStore way is likely doable but in a horrific way where each file is added as readable, for now opting out is probably the best workaround.

ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE looks like a solution. But needs VFS support first.
