Mozilla is trying to access my folders.

Hello, I would like to thank you, first and foremost, for taking a look at my issue. As for the issue itself, every so often, with increasing frequency, I am getting notifications from windows security about it blocking "firefox.exe" from accessing my "%userprofile%/documents" folder. I am not a tech savvy person so I don't understand what any of this actually means but I've been using Firefox for the better part of the last decade and this is the first time I've ever had something like this come up.

I've attached a couple of screenshots I took recently so maybe it'll offer some insight that I don't have the knowledge to understand.

Thank you for your time.
