Cab you access h: via the cli or file explorer?
It Sounds line samba getting upset, which is why I usually use NFS and
mount the remote drive on the linux workstation I don't use windows much
if at all, but when I did use samba it was always a pig to get the
permissions working correctly. Even things like thge workgroup and domain
sometimes caused grief.
See:
Near the end are a couple of suggestions regarding a registry entry and
also using smbpasswd -a muuser

Hello - I have recently installed KC 6.0.4 on a Windows 10 platform. I have a file repository for projects on a Ubuntu server running Samba, open permissions. When I attempt to save a schematic I get the following errors:

I have verified I have full administrative rights to my local (C) directory and the permissions to the repository (H) are set open on both Linux and Samba. I am NOT initiating KiCad on the Windows machine in administrative mode, although I have done so and tested, with the same results.
An odd end result / also observed effect is all of the component values that were saved have vanished, although the reference designators are still intact???
Could someone guide me as to where I am going wrong?
Thank You!
