My first impression is that somehow the installer screwed up, and installed the copy of the pref pane that is inside the DMG. It sounds like you also had this thought.
Compress the DMG and delete the original. Logout and log back in. This should break whatever voodoo connection existed between System Preferences and this DMG. See of the pref pane disappeared, still exists, and/or still works. Also, check your startup items in Users to find any that are "not found." Once you've assured yourself that the bad behavior is stopped, if you need to reinstall the pref pane, decompress the DMG, copy its contents onto the Desktop, delete the decompressed DMG (save the compressed one) and then do the installation. If the installer truly is wonky, it may then install your Desktop copy as the pref pane, which will cause a different set of problems — if this is the case, contact whoever made the DMG and ask them to fix their bug. > On Feb 6, 2019, at 9:38 AM, Chris Walker <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi: > > I recently installed a pref pane.
