fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied

fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied

When I attempted to mount a drive as Normal User ( Non-Root),
I got the following error

fuse: failed to open /dev/fuse: Permission denied

Solution mentioned here,

https://www.chrisnewland.com/solved-fuse-failed-to-open-devfuse-permission-denied-sshfs-236

worked. Just add the User to the fuse group. I run this command as root user.


usermod -a -G fuse chris

This one worked and I was able to mount the drive as normal user.
