Dear Community,

perhaps people experience the same (happens with my Xiaomi 14, Hyper OS 2.0.6.0, Android 15). I have put files in the "private album". When I open the album, I can see all the fotos and vids. However, I cannot send them (not via Bluetooth, Mail, Google-services or Quick Share) and the vids will not start when clicked (a few days back that still worked). I also cannot transform them back to be "normal files" in the "normal album" (this way is suggested by the menue below the private gallery if a file is marked - but this doesnt work). Its clearly a bug - any options how those private files can be pulled from the private album? I used ADB SHELL, but couldnt find the private files. Help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
