Hello experts

I am getting “Please change the permissions to 0770 so that the directory cannot be listed by other people.” during admin login.

Kindly help.

Maybe it is not possible to change the rights. Then you must deactivate the check in `config.php`.

`'check_data_directory_permissions' => true,`
