No access to external HD or other USB drives in LibreOffice 6 (Through “Save as”)
I cannot documents on a external drive (HD or USB Flash) in LibreOffice when I try to use the function "Save as".
I can however open documents in general from external drives.
The following image of my desktop show the left column with the places in which I can save the documents through the function "Save as". Although my external HD is mounted, I do not have access to it.
Screenshot from the function Save as in LibreOffice 6
How to fix it?
Thank you.

It does not work either. The external HD appears on the desktop but not in the list.

When mounted automatically the external HDD is under/media/<username>.
