Xamarin File.WriteAllBytes the method does not write data

Question

Here is my code:

string f = GetRefInfoServise.GetRefInfo("GA");
byte[] data = System.Convert.FromBase64String(f);

var backingFile = 
   Path.Combine(System.Environment.GetFolderPath(System.Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal), "arch.zip");

File.WriteAllBytes(backingFile, data);`

The method does not return an exception, but the file is not written. I'm trying to do this on Android API 28

It seems that you want to add data to a zip file. You could check the similar problem https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19140113/how-can-i-write-blob-datas-to-zip-and-download-it-in-c — Lucas Zhang, Apr 20 '20 at 12:26

It works. I just didn't know about the internal storage. It is hidden from the user, so I couldn't find my file.
