In the past I've used paragon and tuxera and the annoying thing about them is that I need to downgrade my computer security by going into safe mode and disabling things. Do you remember that also? With this tool, do you need to do this also? Cause thats actually why I won't use paragon anymore. Cause I'm not going to downgrade my security. It's not worth it. So I don't want to use it anymore. Does this also require me to downgrade the security?

Ah, that’s a shame because it’s a deal breaker for me. Thanks for letting me know! On 3. Apr 2023 at 14:03 +0200, Tito @.***>, wrote:

I assume christhomas was referring to Gatekeeper? I always allow apps from anywhere, so that's not a problem for me. The installer didn't instruct me to disable anything, so I assume it recognized Gatekeeper was already disabled. However, the plug-in is not detected after rebooting.

com.omi.ntfs.HelperTool.plist is in the LaunchDaemons folder and Activity Monitor shows it's running, so...what's the prob? Is the plug-in compatible with macOS 10.14.6 (Mojave)?

The USB drive I use with my tv appears in Omni's sidebar and can supposedly be repaired, gray files fixed etc. SInce the plug-in isn't recognized, I can't add files to the drive or trash ones on it. However I can copy files on the drive to another volume. I don't have these issues with Paragon.
