SAPGUI Java on Mac cannot write file to Desktop

I'm trying to generate an .ini file in SAPGUI Java on a Mac running Big Sur. I am able to navigate to a local directory but after clicking Save I get an error "Write access to file "file://DEST_SAM2010_PPROP" denied." See full log below.

The app has permissions to access the folder and I am able to save a text file via the "Save/Send > Local File..." menu to those locations.

Is this an issue with the file itself, the SAPGUI client, Java, or my local system? Any way to rectify it?

Hello Zack,

Seems to be just a filename without path, not sure in which folder this is going to end up.

You might want to have a look at
