My feeling is that controlled folder access is far too "tight" for 
normal humans to deal with, e.g. it might allow Office365 access to 
documents in the documents folder because the program is on the "trusted 
cos we say it is" list, but Reolink likely won't be on the list, 
LibreOffice wasn't on the list from what i remember, so I turned it 
straight back off ... but I think all problems then went away.
