Giving an app permissions to my documents folder without admin I have macOS Catalina and I wanted to see if there was a way for me to change the setting where you give apps access to files/folders. I have a game that wants access to documents and it isn't giving me the option to grant it. When I go to settings, the plus sign isn't clickable and I don't have administrator privileges so I can't turn it on. All I want to do is give it access to my Documents folder. This wasn't a problem until I updated to 10.15 and apps started prompting me to give them permissions, but this one never gave me a prompt. I was thinking maybe I could change it in the file where the mac keeps its preferences or if there is some command in terminal or maybe I'm just being an idiot and I can do it in System Preferences.
Thanks
You will not be able to make the change from the command line if you can’t make it from the GUI.

Look in settings for Profiles - if you see them, the people managing settings will need to grant your app permissions or let you become an admin or make the allowance for you.
