Sharepoint Teamsite owner can't edit the files that he is owner of.

Hello there Andres,
The user hasn't been removed an recreated, this issue appeared 4days ago without any changes to the site, team or user permissions.
I tried your suggestion it didn't find any issues:
What's more frustrating is that he can do everything to the file such as copy, move, remove and..... except editing.

This is what I see there:
He got full control (Given through the site owners) , and I see there beside limited access (not sure why or how or what even that means since he has full control)
and on the file itself these are the permissions:
- Sep 22, 2023About limited access
when you assign edit or open permissions to the single item, SharePoint automatically assigns Limited Access to other required locations, such as the site or library in which the single item is located.
Is this happening with only this library from this site? or any library in the same site?
What about other sites?- Alma90Sep 25, 2023Copper Contributor
I've checked with the user and he is experiencing this issue only on this site (single library).
Since this is a sharepoint team-site, if I want to remove and reassign him the owner permissions set which way is the best to do:
Remove him from sharepoint site wait 30mins and assign him back
OR
Remove him from the team(teams admin center) wait 30mins and add him back to the team?
