I mistakenly clicked ‘Do Not Allow’ when asked if I would allow downloads to be imported. How do I fix that? Mac

From google:
To allow downloaded files to be imported into applications on macOS, you need to adjust your system settings to allow access to files and folders. You can do this through Privacy & Security settings, specifically by enabling apps to access the Downloads folder.

Here’s how to allow apps to access your Downloads folder:

  1. Open System Settings: Click on the Apple menu () in the top left corner and select “System Settings”.
  2. Navigate to Privacy & Security: In the sidebar, click on “Privacy & Security”.
  3. Access Files & Folders: Scroll down and click on “Files & Folders”.
  4. Enable Access: Find the application you want to allow access to and toggle the switch next to the “Downloads” folder to enable access.
  5. Optional: Allow from Anywhere (Security setting): You can also adjust the general security settings to allow apps from anywhere, but this should be done with caution as it can increase security risks.
