Hi,

Thanks for reaching out.

The command has not mentioned the output directory path so it tries to get downloaded in /glob/intel-python/ path. Since we do not have write permission in  /glob/intel-python/ path it throws the error.

If you are using openvino from this path try to include the output directory path as below

./downloader.py --all --output_dir my/download/directory
