The following message appears: "The preset file could not be opened. Incorrect file permissions or corrupt preset file."
Hello,
Every time I try to select a preset in FabFilter Twin 3, the following message appears:
“The preset file could not be opened. Incorrect file permissions or corrupt preset file.”
Does anyone know what might be wrong or how I could fix this?
Thank you!

This seems to be an issue with the files offloading from your computer and onto your iCloud when you have iCloud syncing enabled for your documents folder. You can download the preset to your local machine again by clicking the download icon in Finder. The presets are located there:
Documents/FabFilter/
You can also right click on the folder and choose "Keep Downloaded" so the files will not be removed locally again.
Please let me know if this resolves your issue.
