Re: Chrome is able to see different folders, but Edge can't
Install flatseal, you can change the permissions of flatpaks. I've never used it, I avoid them.

Re: Chrome is able to see different folders, but Edge can't
I installed flatseal, but the moment I open it, it broke my display. The whole screen is black. The icons in taskbar also gone.
So I search for another way to configure flakpak. Then I discovered flatpak override command
above code made Edge able to access files under /mnt folder.
Now, how do I mark this topic as resolved?
Thanks for everyone who spend their thought on this

Go back to your first post and click the edit icon (the one with a pencil) and add [solved] into the title.
