@Anke might want to add that method into her All Files Permission extension

  @SimpleFunction(description = "Checks, if MANAGE_STORAGE_PERMISSION has been granted. Returns true or false.")
  public boolean HasManageStoragePermission() {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) {
      if (Environment.isExternalStorageManager())
        return true;
      else
        return false;
    } else
      return true;
  }
