Hello.

I'm on MacOS 13.5.2 and I installed NoSleep 1.5.2 but when I run it, I get this error in the title.

Can anyone help me please?

@XtroTheArctic have you read https://github.com/squirelo/macosx-nosleep-extension/issues/148 ?

Have you try 

sudo kextload -v /Library/StagedExtensions/Applications/NoSleep.app/Contents/Resources/NoSleep.kext

?

I didn't know about that command. Now I tried but still doesn't work. I posted the details to the other thread you gave me above.

Thank you very much.

I had originally saved the application in the utilities folder. I moved it into the applications folder, ran the terminal command listed above and it seems to be working! On an intel mac running big sur.

After giving up on this for many months, today I came back to it and gave it another shot and I made it work finally.

First, I needed to enable kernel extension on my Mac by turning it on via boot-up options with the help of this web article: https://macpaw.com/how-to/enable-system-extensions-mac

Then, in the regular preferences window of Mac OS, I gave permission to the author of this app and restarted the computer one more time. It just started to work fine. I hope this info helps someone in the future.
