win32com.client Outlook automation with permission error

Trying to download files from emails in Outlook, as I tried to save them the following error appeared (error code is translated may be different in English):

An exception occurred: com_error
(-2147352567, 'Exception.', (4096, 'Microsoft Outlook', 'Cannot save attachment. You do not have the proper permissions to perform this operation.', None, 0, -2147024891), None)
   File "C:\Users\jec\OneDrive - XP Investimentos\Financeiro\X - Teste\Automações\500000\Automation.py", line 17, in <module>
     pdf.SaveAsFile(str(pdf))
pywintypes.com_error: (-2147352567, 'Exception.', (4096, 'Microsoft Outlook', 'Unable to save attachment. You do not have the proper permissions to perform this operation.', None, 0, -2147024891), None)

My code is:

import win32com.client as client # python -m pip install --upgrade pywin32
import datetime as datetime
import pandas as pd

## Connect in outlook
outlook = client.Dispatch("Outlook.Application").GetNamesPace('MAPI')
account = outlook.Folders['financeiro@manchesterinvest.com.br'] # Set the account
inbox = account.Folders['INVESTIMENTO CONTAS A PAGAR'] # Select a folder
   
## Recover the invoice
BHS_email = [message for message in inbox.Items if message.SenderEmailAddress == 'email@test.com.br' and int(pd.to_datetime(message.ReceivedTime, utc = True).strftime("%m")) == int(datetime.date.today().month)] # Only recovers the e-mail from the month (!!!! - CAN RECOVER THE EMAILS FROM THE SAME MONTH IN OTHER YEARS - !!!!)

for message in BHS_email:
    attachment = message.Attachments

    for pdf in attachment:
        pdf.SaveAsFile(str(pdf))

Can I override this problem?

Tried to download PDFs from Outlook application with Python, resulted in an error message: pywintypes.com_error: (-2147352567, 'Exceção.', (4096, 'Microsoft Outlook', 'Não é possível salvar o anexo. Você não possui a permissão adequada para executar esta operação.', None, 0, -2147024891), None)

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
