Can't open files in NTFS partition with wps-office [closed]
I have a dual boot laptop, with a NTFS shared partition, in which i have all my files. I want to access them in both OS'.
With WPS office suite, in Linux Mint 19, I cannot access files in this location, i get this error message:
I'm mounting the partition via /etc/fstab
/dev/disk/by-uuid/9A32665932663A81 /mnt/9A32665932663A81 ntfs-3g defaults,permissions 0 0
I've tried several mount configurations and none seem to work:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/9A32665932663A81 /mnt/9A32665932663A81 ntfs nls=iso8859-1,permissions,users,auto,exec
/dev/disk/by-uuid/9A32665932663A81 /mnt/9A32665932663A81 ntfs defaults 0 0
I can access the same files with Libreoffice perfectly, and don't have any other problems with other files and other programs.
SOLVED:
As some users commented, the problem was with the snap installation. All i did was uninstalling and downloading the deb package.
Thank you!

If this problem happens only with WPS Office, you might have better luck reporting a bug to them, or at least asking somewhere on their forum. I wouldn't hold much breath a random person would be able to answer that otherwise.

Probably installed as a snap and you may need to configure the snap permissions.

Snap application needs additional care to access file outside home.
