Lightroom Classic 8.3: Issues exporting photos to a Network Drive
Since I upgraded to V8.3 of Lightroom Classic I can no longer export my files to our Synology Network System, I get the following error message "The specified folder in not writable"
After contacting support they were not able to resolve my issue, they maintained that it is a network issue on my side. I could not find any answers here or anywhere on the internet and decided to report this issue.
Because I share my processed photos with the rest of the office, my only solution was to un-install V8.3 and go back to V8.2.1, by doing that it resolved my problem.
So yes Adobe you have network issues in V8.3 as version 8.2.1 works perfectly when saving files to a network drive.

I wanted to give you an update on this issue. We've been able to identify a possible bug with regard to this issue. We are currently testing the fix with a few users to verify that it does cure the issue. At this time I do not have an ETA for a public-facing fix.
If your issue is with Export the workaround continues to be: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/error_export_folder.html
If your issue is with Publish Services, the only workaround is to revert to version 8.2.1.
Thank you for all the information you've provided thus far and we hope to have this resolved quickly so everyone can get back to their normal workflow.
Thanks for your patience.

This is not a windows issue, since I do only have this problem with Lightroom.
I found a work around, in the export box you can select in the top "select folder later". I you use this, you are allowed to export.

We have not been able to reproduce this issue with a local folder, network location or an NAS.
Could you share the screenshot of the securities tab from the folder properties for the folder where you are facing this issue?
Thanks,
Smit

My system: Windows 10, target export folder a mounted folder from a NAS. It is *NOT* an issue with the network folder itself. While LR complained about the "read-only" folder, I could create sub folders and files there as usual.
The export into a local folder worked fine.

After the first error message, I opened the common export dialog and did a "select folder" operation (just to be sure, that the preset has correct settings).
After selecting that folder on my NAS - the export dialog was still open and no export was started yet - I got the "read only" message again.
