Every time I create a file it need permission from mac to add the file to a folder. Is there a way to give MakeMKV permission so I dont have to give it permission every time?
Thanks

Sounds like the folder has permissions set to "ask" for write ability, which is separate from MakeMKV permissions.
Does it do it for ALL folders, or just certain ones?

I have granted Full Disk Access both to the MakeMKV.app and to the binary `/Applications/MakeMKV.app/Contents/MacOS/makemkv`, but it doesn't help, I keep getting this prompt, seemingly every time MakeMKV starts writing a new file:
"“makemkv” would like to access files on a removable volume."
I am writing the backup to an external drive, this is on macOS 13.3.
If I write the backup to the internal drive, I only get the prompt twice, that's it.

In Finder, if I right-click MakeMKV, "Show Package Contents", and add the "MacOS/makemkv" executable binary, that resolves it for me. Assuming you've restarted the app, I don't understanding why you're still getting prompted. It's still happening across restarts? If you've updated MakeMKV, you might need to re-add the `makemkv` binary.
