Fixing issues

Catalina OSX

User files and folders

Emacs.app actually launches using a ruby script. As a result, MacOS Catalina uses the permissions set for ruby, not the permissions for Emacs.app. Open General Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy, select Full Disk Access in the left pane, then click + and add /usr/bin/ruby to resolve your issue. /usr is hidden by default on MacOS but you can toggle visibility in Finder by using Shift+Command+Period
