welp.
Tried to create a master obsidian vault using my Documents folder and I get an access permissions error on a folder that literally does not even exist in Documents.
What the hell, Microsoft? wtf is up with this shit?
Also what the hell, Obsidian? Why do you just hard-stop at a folder like that without giving me the option to simply exclude it from the vault?
Ohey I found the solution to this issue and of course it is Microsoft making weird decisions about Windows that's left me with a few "system" folders that are completely inaccessible and unusable and might as well be deleted.
