Unable to load KBFS #22347

Keybase Install Error
We were unable to load KBFS (Fuse kext). This may be due to a limitation in MacOS
where there aren't any device slots available. Device slots can be taken up
by apps such as VMWare, VirtualBox, anti-virus programs, VPN programs and Intel HAXM.

As the error message says, this is related to conflicting programs you might be running -- macOS doesn't allow too many of them to run at once. If you need KBFS more than those other programs, you'll have to choose which one to disable/uninstall in favor of KBFS.

I'm getting this error too although I am not running any virtual machines, antivirus, VPN. Do you have any advice for how to see more information about the "device slots"? Are there terminal commands I can use to see a list of them? How can I disable or uninstall the ones I don't need?
