Hello there, Thank you for your effort. When I want to save a project in a shared drive, I am getting permission denied message. The drive has been shared between Windows and Ubuntu in a dual boot mode. I would appreciate it if you give me some advice. Thank you.

Interesting. I don't have this issue. I would suggest you to check if there are no file/folder ownership conflicts; you may need to change ownership or permissions using chown or chmod in Ubuntu. Also check check the drive's mount permissions in Ubuntu using the ls -l command. You might need to adjust mount options in /etc/fstab to grant write permissions. On the Windows side, ensure that Fast Boot is disabled, it can lock the drive in a hibernation-like state, preventing other OSes from writing to it.
