Well, Hello, There,
I am seeing errors writing to Documents folder (i.e., Desktop.ini) although my user has read and write to the Documents folder.
I open the PortableAppsMacHelper.app from the Documents folder and it just says "Can't Write ~/Documents/Desktop.ini".
Anybody seeing the errors as well?
Thank you.
Best,
Hoa

Did you get the macOS access prompt? It should pop up a "PortableAppsMacOSHelper.app would like access to your Documents folder" prompt as it installs for you to click Approve on.
No, I did not get the macOS access prompt. It did not pop up the required Approval prompt.
(Update notes on my previous post: Confirmations: Quarantine fix completed successfully. I am running macOS Ventura 13.3)
Thank you for the support.
If it fails. Please try deleting the app and redownloading a fresh copy and performing the steps again. If that fails, please try the same but this time after extracting it to Documents, rename it to PortableAppsMacHelper2.app and then do the quarantine fix with the adjusted name. I'm not sure why this occurs yet but I'm hoping it's related to it not being signed which I may be able to get sorted this week now that I got us approved with Apple.
