try this
rclone mount crypt: /Crypt -vv --allow-other

"On Linux, start the mount where /path/to/local/mount is an empty existing directory"
so make sure /Crypt exists on your machine and is empty

I have created an empty folder here /home/user01/Crypt

11

/Crypt from the root of the file system, not inside your homedir.
same as /etc

so have to make the dir -> /Crypt
mkdir /Crypt

12

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/Crypt’: Permission denied

cannot create it there

13

ok created now /Crypt

14

sudo rclone mount crypt: /Crypt -vv --allow-other

15

before you ran the mount as user01, now you are running the mount as user01
why the change?

rclone config files are per user.

so if you must run rclone mount as root, need to have a config file for root user at
/root/.config/rclone/rclone.conf

16

I have always done it as user01 other user does not exist at all

17

you ran the last command using sudo, so rclone ran as root.

run the command command without sudo
rclone mount crypt: /Crypt -vv --allow-other

18

19

sudo chmod 777 /Crypt
then run the rclone mount command

20

ok now the files are in /Crypt folder

last line on command is this
