I'm trying to edit files on an external hard drive using Mp3tag but I keep getting the following error message telling me I cannot access files via secure bookmark.

The funny thing is, it use to work all the time. Not sure what has changed.

Can you try this command via Terminal.app while Mp3tag being closed:

`defaults delete app.mp3tag.Mp3tag SecurityScopedBookmarks`

After that, load the **folder** (not the individual files) via ⌘O and see if the issue persists.

That worked Florian, no longer getting the error message. Thank you.
