All ok now.
Is my sd card about to fail or is an android permissions glitch a more likely explanation. I recently had netflix fail to playback a downloaded show from that same card. But that is also working ok after retrying dowmloads
I doubt that the SD card is failing. Android Storage Access Facility (SAF) permissions are notoriously fragile. They often disappear when Android is updated. They sometimes disappear when a device is rebooted. They occasionally disappear when the moon is full.

As for "files go": I doubt it has anything to do with the problem unless you have rooted your device. I can imagine one way that it could affect permissions, unmounting and remounting the SD card, but I think that doing that would trigger all sorts of popups and warnings.
