   I figured out what is going on.  If your app downloads the file and then the 
user manually deletes the file you cannot save the file with the same name 
again; this is related to some Android caching of some sort.  I found this 
reference here:
   
   https://github.com/itinance/react-native-fs/issues/1078
   
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/932579/after-manually-delete-a-file-and-use-fileoutputstr
   
   Apparently this started in Android 11+.  The proper solutions offered 
haven't worked for me.  But the hack solution does work.
   
   If the user manually deleted the file then use the error to "EEXIST" to 
determine that, then redownload the file again and save it with a slightly 
different name...add a random character to the end of the name and it will 
save.
