when running the Quest Patcher.app on MacBook Pro on Mac OS Sonoma I receive below critical error messages

I'm not really an expert, just trying to mod beat saber on my meta quest 3 :-)

Try opening a terminal and running sudo chown -R <username> .config replace <username> with your username (you can get this by running whoami).

Basically the permissions for your home folder are messed up so QP can't access it.

It seems like your user doesn't have the permissions to update the necessary attributes. Make sure that you're an administrator.

Closing as no further reports of the issue, seems like an isolated case of user permissions being set wrongly.
