Access denied error

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is experiencing an 'Access Denied' error when trying to edit posts with WPML activated. The issue occurs on all posts, pages, and custom post types.

Solution:
We recommend checking if the client is using WP File Manager version 7.2.3. This version has been known to cause similar issues, which have been resolved in version 7.2.4. The client should update WP File Manager to the latest version to fix the 'Access Denied' error. For more information, please refer to the WordPress support forum: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/access-denied-99/.

Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If the issue persists, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you need further assistance, please open a new support ticket in the WPML support forum.

hamnaA	User is getting Access Denied error when editing posts when WPML is active. He interrupted the chat because he had to go, so I escalated it.

Does the issue happen if you deactivate all non-WPML related plugins temporarily? I set the following reply as private. So you can provide a link to the duplicator package.
