Hi!

I finally updated to MacOS 26 last Friday. Unfortunately, the launcher
"VisualWorks Projects" does not launch my images anymore. However, I open
them directly with the VM without issues. I was not able to figure out what
causes the issue but I suspect a problem with permissions since very/too
briefly, a popup was shown stating something like "The app has not the
permission to start app (null)". Has anyone a hint?

Ciao,
Steffen
