Install as admin - unavailable as standard user #98
We've been using Privileges for a while. This may be a Sonoma-only issue. I download the latest version and while logged on as an administrator, drag the program to the Applications folder. I run it twice to make sure the helper is installed. Then when a standard user account is created for the end-user, the Privileges icon in Applications is grayed out and if I click on it the message says the program is damaged. I have to copy the program to Applications again and supply the admin password to permit the copy. Then Privileges works properly. I'd like to avoid this extra step.
