Hello, can you help me? I have the same problem. Here is my log, which has reported many such errors.

Hi @next_xiong. Please check to see whether your Windows documents folder is accessible. Other users reported getting this error when they were using Microsoft "OneDrive" and it was not connected.

  • Thank you, my problem is solved

You are welcome. I'm glad it is working now.

Regards,
