Everything was fine until I upgraded from 21.10 to 22.04. Now, whenever I try to download something in any browser (Brave, Vivaldi, Firefox, etc), I can only download it to my home folder or any folder inside the system drive (I use a separate SSD for Ubuntu). I use my data HDD on auto-mount so i'ts always mounted & I have no problem reading/writing from it (I can open Rhythmbox and play music from there, wget files into it via Terminal, copy, paste & delete), but I can't 'Save As' on my browsers, it asks me if I want to save but files won't download, show up in the HDD or even in the browsers download list. Already checked permissions & apps have permission. Does anybody know how to solve this or even what's causing it?

I'm using deb packaged firefox and chrome and I could not save files outside of the home directories.


My problem is with bookmarks on the gnome Files app. I removed all of the bookmarks and added them again. I can then save files to the bookmarked locations.
