it has enough free space
and always getting this error

You can see the preview of the picture in the left folder “Pictures”, so at this folder you have all necessary permissions.

But it remains the question about the folders ???/hydro and ???/garuda/@cache on the right.

Open @cache’s parent folder “garuda” in a terminal and enter ls -l or open the “@cache” folder directly and enter ls -l ..

The same for hydro.

What is the output of the line that contains @cache / hydro ?

My partition was under root and solved by @dalto
sudo chown insas:insas /mnt/my/drive
Is there gui way to do the same.

If you right click on the folder, andd then click properties you should be able to file permissions

Does that work if it is owned by root?
