Hi. From the error message it sounds like a permission problem with your Anki media collection folder. So I guess the best thing to ask would be:
What happens if you drag and drop an image onto a regular Anki note (e.g. the "Front" field on a Basic note, or the "Cloze" field on a cloze note). Do you see any error message there? What if you copy and paste the image from a web browser into a field instead? (Right click on any image in our web browser of choice, select "Copy image", then go back to Anki, select the "Front" field for instance, and Ctrl+V / Cmd + V to paste the image.
Please let me know if either of these interaction paths produce any error messages and we can go from there.
Hi,
Actually yes, I receive a similar error message when dragging an image from the desktop. I will attempt to copy and paste from a web browser.
Thanks!

I also received the same message when pasting from an online source.
Is there a way to allow Anki permission to these sources for images?

Hi Parker,
To be quite honest, I'm not sure what's going on here. The media folder should be user-writable. Since this appears to be a general issue with your Anki installation, my recommendation would be to post on the official support forums: https://anki.tenderapp.com/discussions/ankidesktop. Damien (Anki's creator) is usually very responsive.
Either way, I hope I could help a bit at least.
I'm closing this issue report for now, as the problem is not specific to the add-on.
Problem description
I have not been using Anki for that long. In fact, image occlusion is my first add-on to download. I had used it once or twice without issue. But while creating cards, I attempted to import a converted PNG file from PDF. I am able to put the image into Anki and place occlusion boxes over parts of the image, but when I go to press "Hide All, Guess One". I am presented with an error.
