I am unable install games due to some permission problem.

Heroic doesn't seem to have permissions to the directory I want to install games in and I can't really figure out how to tackle this. Error message from the log when I try to install a game in that directory. Cannot write to "/run/user/1001/doc/e79bfdc6/Heroic": Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, access '/run/user/1001/doc/e79bfdc6/Heroic'

Use Flatseal to grant Heroic permissions Other than that: Where are you trying to install to? If it's a common path, we might want to add it to the paths accessible by default

Okay, that was simpler than I thought. Adding just "filesystem permission" didn't work, I had to add a path to the directory. And I was trying to install to /mnt/Games All is working now, thank you very much and sorry for bothering you with this

Oh no problem at all, I'll see if we can add /mnt to the folder list (you're not the first with that issue)
