ANDROID 10+
The shared/external storage mechanism known as an SD card has been deprecated starting with Android 10. The operating system now mandates that all apps use its sandboxed folder for all app data. If you upgrade your device to Android 10 or higher, you may need to copy/move and replace the ".fora" folder from your device's shared storage to the app's sandboxed folder (typically Android/data/com.ngc.fora/files) using a file manager.
