Error! Permission denied. Unable to write files to your download location.

[PinkDucki]

When I go to download a video as audio only it says 'Error! Permission denied. (also seems to put a webp file in the location?)

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Get link from a youtube video
2. Select Audio only. Best quality
3. Press Download
4. See error

A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
Should download the video and show up in the file explorer location

Screenshot

• OS: Windows 10
• Application version 2.5.4
• Application type (not sure what this is)

Additional context
Seems to work fine downloading as video + audio
I do indeed have permissions to read and write to the folder

Same thing happened to me, but I was able to fix it. Sign into the site you are trying to download from and update your cookies.
