If you try the older builds from https://github.com/dado3212/spaces-renamer/releases (specifically the spaces-renamer bundle for v1.10.1 and v1.11.0) do either work?

[Sciccorz]

still no change

[dantab66]

Sciccorz, have you tried the Terminal command "pkill -9 Dock" after you restart?

I need to do this every time I restart my Macbook M3 in order for the names to get set. Not sure why this is happening but it takes me a few seconds each time I reboot.

[Sciccorz]

Yep, do it every time after I restart

Same things happened in M1 Sonoma 14.4.1. With MacForge 1.2.2(3), SpacesRenamer, and the bundle(1.11.1). After the Renamer has moved itself into the Application folder, it added itself automatically to the login items. The SIP and Library validation is closed. Here may be some question about the bundle as the MacEnhance folder has a different path as described in the readme file. However I still try to copy the bundle to the \Users\Shared\macenhance file and try to run it by clicking or dragging it into the Macforge interface. I notice that the bundle maybe working, but not as designed. Finally, after run the "killall -9 Dock", and try to give new names in the renamed, but nothing changed after the Update Name choice is selected. Is there any problems with the bundle running method? Thanks for any advice available :)

Same problem - everything seemed to install correctly, the icon is visible, but when I rename and click the button, there is no change. I'm in the newest Sequoia 15.1, but this happened in my last few versions as well. Every year or so I try all over again and the same outcome. I feel like it must be user error but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I've been using spaces-renamer for quite some time successfully. Ever since my Mac upgraded to Sequoia changing the names of desktops has doesn't work. Exact same symptoms that tacomania posted above. Is there a compatibility issue with Sequoia? (I am also on the latest version 15.1)

Same issue with Sequoia 15.1, MacForge 1.2.2, spaces-renamer.bundle (1.11.1)

[dado3212]

Which MacForge 1.2.2 bundle do people have? It needs to explicitly be 1.2.2 (3). I'm on Sequoia 15.1 and it's working correctly.

This was a problem that was reported where MacForge was "updating" itself to a downgrade. See https://github.com/dado3212/spaces-renamer?tab=readme-ov-file#debugging-common-issues for how to resolve it, by fully uninstalling MacForge, running purge.sh, restarting, and reinstalling.

Here's a screen shot of my MacForge. I am on an M3 chip that was working prior to upgrading to Sequoia. Are you saying that event hough it says I am on 1.2.2. (3), I should still go through the uninstall/reinstall process?
