My question in a StackOverflow post, I'm just gonna paste it here:

I'm trying to edit the frida-ios-dump project to actually work for on my PC and I'm currently running into a weird issue that I think has to do with permissions somehow.

chmod_dir = os.path.join(PAYLOAD_PATH, os.path.basename(dump_path))
chmod_args = ('chmod', '655', chmod_dir)
try:
    subprocess.check_call(chmod_args)
except subprocess.CalledProcessError as err:
    print(err)

This piece of code here throws this error: FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified but I had a good feeling that that file DID in fact exist, so I added the following except:

except FileNotFoundError:
    print(chmod_dir)
    print("FileNotFound, yet path exists: " + str(os.path.exists(chmod_dir)))

And as suspected, the file DOES exist! My code prints FileNotFound, yet path exists: True
and since I also printed the path, we can see that here: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Temp\Payload\protobuf.fid and upon manually visiting that folder, I confirmed that the file does indeed exist there.

I have a strong feeling that this is some permission problem, but I'm not sure what I could do to fix it.
