> Without file picker you can access only 3 folders: getTemporaryFolder() getDataFolder() getPluginFolder() With the new FileSystem API it’s possible to read/write without file picker: [https://developer.adobe.com/photoshop/uxp/2022/uxp/reference-js/Modules/FileSystem/](https://developer.adobe.com/photoshop/uxp/2022/uxp/reference-js/Modules/FileSystem/) It requires manifest version 5 and PS 24.0.0. In the manifest also declare: "requiredPermissions": { "localFileSystem": "fullAccess" }
