I have read access

Yes, for media files everywhere except of /Android/data

@Gian_Carlo

If I try to create a folder always on the root directory with the File.MakeDirectory method it works.
So it makes you think you also have write access

This might depend on the Android version of your test device
For newer versions you might have to use SAF - storage access framework SAF: App Inventor implementation of Storage Access Framework

I would do what is easily doable with the file component only… which is accessing shared storage like /Download

My goal would be to simply copy the file “/storage/emulated/0/X1.jpg” as “/storage/emulated/0/X2.jpg”

Copy from /storage/emulated/0/Download/yourFolder/X1.jpg to /storage/emulated/0/Download/yourFolder/X2.jpg
