Can't browse to www folder from some programs












0















I have apache setup so I can develop websites locally from /var/www I can browse the this folder perfectly fine from some programs such as Nautilus and Atom but can't from others such as Gitkraken (I get a permission denied message).



I get that this is do do with permissions but don't know which it affects some programs and not others. Most have been installed through the software center in Ubuntu.

          I have found uninstalling Gitkraken via snap and downloading it from the website and re-installing it that way has worked. Presumably snap ads extra restrictions.
