Yes. I'd like to figure out whether there was a way to make macOS bring up the "allow access?" prompt programmatically. I was wondering whether I don't see it because I had been running early betas already. Ok, I got something. Found a command to reset all those settings. But things are

Hi, not to refute or detract from anyone's experiences or issues, but I just upgraded my Mac to from 10.14.6 to 10.15.1 and my LMS 7.9.2 seems to be working fine. I have all my music on an external drive connected to my Mac.

That's odd - I just reinstalled LMS version 7.7.6 and didn't get a darwin-x86_64 folder. Hmmm. What's the full path of your 64-bit folder? That's correct, it's not part of 7.7.6. I should probably update 7.7.7. But then I'd recommend to use 7.9 anyway :-).
