Hi

I have been using your app for a long time but recently I got this message, I was wondering if you knew why this could be.

Thanks

Hi @Soneji—sorry for the delayed response on this. I've never seen that before. Where did you download gfxCardStatus from? Are any of the files in your home directory located on a network drive?

I believe that the only file gfxCardStatus accesses directly is ~/Library/Preferences/com.codykrieger.gfxCardStatus-Preferences.plist.

Hi Turns out a bunch of apps I had installed started doing this after I mounted a network volume. I reckon it's some sort of lower level macOS thing Thanks for the great app!
