SMB Access Denied

Could it be the issue described here?

SMB shares permission denied, can't resolve

I came back to my pc after some time and updated. Not sure what, but now my SMB share no longer let me write files to my share, then after some attempted fixing got a new error that denied me access to the SMB share as a whole using both Dolphin and cifs-utils giving the error “mount error (13): Permission denied”. Nothing I have tried so far as seems to work, the SMB share works just fine on other computers running Win/Linux. I am not sure why my OS is blocking my connection to my SMB se…

Have a look at the description on the KDE forum and see if this matches your symptoms:

[confirmed] Kde-frameworks 6.19 with SMB mounted: Dolphin cannot copy or...

(Upstream KDE bug ticket: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510567)

A potential workaround is to install the cifs-utils package if you don’t have it already, and mount the smb share at boot time using /etc/fstab.

On my system (F42 KDE with all recent updates), I have no issues in Dolphin working with my SMB share mounted in /etc/fstab, so if that’s an option for you, it’s worth a try.
