Dear Allin

I am using the same Macbook and the

• Gretl was working fine but an earlier version of macOS

• Then I tried to instal macOS with Ventura (13.0) and the Gretl was working fine too

• Then I tried to instal Gretl latest update (Nov 1st release) on the installing process a message came That  Gretl tried to access your folder (something similar to) but I accidentally pressed NO button

• Since then, the same error message pops up every time try installing the Gretl

Please feel free for any further information.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

Regards,

Fazeel

Thanks for trying, Fazeel, but I'm afraid there's no useful
information in that listing. It might help if you could give us a
precise history. I gather that gretl was working OK for you on a Mac
at some earlier point, but...

Was that on the same Intel MacBook with the same OS (Ventura), or
the same MacBook but an earlier version of macOS, or an earlier
MacBook? That is, please give us a precise account of exactly what
has changed since you were last able to install gretl successfully.

Not intending to muddy the waters here, but I've heard of some Mac
users who encountered failures trying to install certain application
programs (not gretl), but managed to do so by creating a new
administrator account and installing the software using that
account.
