share files between user profiles

Having used Migration Assistant to move a file from PC to Mac, the process created a user profile where the file is now stored.

I want to share (I want to move it, really) the file with my main profile.

When I click on the destination 'Public' folder, a popup message tells me I'm not allowed to access that folder. I do note, however that the public folder, is shared, as shown in the attached screengrab.

Can you also tell me whether once transferred, the file in the destination folder will be a copy or just a shortcut in the ad hoc user profile.

Please someone tell me what's missing in the setup for me to be able to copy to that folder.

Many thanks!



MacBook Air (2020 or later)
