Hi Maarten,


thank you very much for your reply. I am using VW 9.3.1 (PUL). Curiously, i=
t worked on macOS 15.x before upgrading to macOS 26.4. Is there anything I =
can do except for waiting for the next release?


Have a nice day!
Steffen

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=
