When you grant the "Access administration bar" permission to a role, a popup dialog suggests that the "Use the administration pages" permission should be granted to the same role as well:
Also allow Authenticated role the "Use the administration pages" permission? This is usually required to display any pages within the administration bar.
We should be doing the same with the "View own files" and "Add and upload new files" permissions, because:
Create a new user, and give them the default "Editor" role
Give the Editor role the "Add and upload new files" and "Access the manage files overview" permissions
Log into the site using the new user account
Head to admin/content/files and click the "Add file" button
Upload a file and save it:

Back to the site as an admin/user1, also add the "View own files" permission to the Editor role
Back to the site as the editor user, refresh the page -> you can now see the file you uploaded without any "access denied" errors 👍🏼
If that permission was suggested to be added when the site admin was initially configuring permissions, then there wouldn't need to be all that fuss 😉

Noting that there's also the "Manage or replace any file" permission, that has Allow managing of files from the files overview page. as its description. Wondering if the file overview page is the only way to perform these actions?;
If that is the case, then perhaps we should also be suggesting to add the "Access the manage files overview" permissions when this is clicked.
If there's other ways to perform these actions, then this description should be tweaked or removed.
