Trouble placing ICC profile into ColorSync/Profile folder (Os Catalina 10.15.7)

I tried dragging and dropping a color profile from our local printing lab into the Profile folder but it is giving me a 🚫message and won't allow me to move it into there. I followed the simple instructions on their website, but it just won't allow me to do so. Help.







MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.12

Because the System partition on Catalina and Big Sur is read-only, you will have to put your ICC profiles into your local Library ColorSync Profiles folder. Click on the Desktop to wake Finder up, and then press shift+command+G to open the Go To Folder dialog. Copy/paste the following path in it, and click GO.


~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles


This will open a new Finder window inside this folder, where you can now deposit your ICC profiles.
