File system persimmon access with event.file.copyTo() on upload components

Ignition

Hello,

I try to use event.file.copyTo("d:/alarms") in onFileReceived on upload components in Perspective Event but get the following error:

com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.script.JythonExecException
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "function:runAction", line 2, in runAction
java.io.FileNotFoundException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Alarms (Access is denied)

caused by org.python.core.PyException
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "function:runAction", line 2, in runAction
java.io.FileNotFoundException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Alarms (Access is denied)

caused by FileNotFoundException: D:\Alarms (Access is denied)

Ignition v8.1.12 (b2021111810)
Java: Azul Systems, Inc. 11.0.11

I try to change security to the D drive and alarms folder but it doesn't work.
Thanks for any help.
