## File System Access Permissions

![A popup requesting permissions to read from the `Downloads` folder](./img/unity-file-system-access-permissions.png)

Starting with macOS Mojave (10.14), directories like `Desktop`, `Documents`, and `Downloads` are considered privacy-sensitive locations and are protected by the operating system's security sandbox. When running a Unity application from one of these locations, users might encounter a popup requesting access. This occurs because the default .NET `HttpMessageHandler` attempts to resolve domain names, which requires filesystem access. Note, that disallowing access to these locations does not affect the SDK from reporting errors.
