Hi!Recently, I've decided to test out the SimpleFirewall project from the last dev conference. After setting everything up, disabling SIP and enabling systemextensionctl developer on,I have tried to run the project, but I've encountered an error saying: SimpleFirewall[] Failed to register with the provider: Couldn’t communicate with a helper application.So far, I've tried placing the app inside /Application, reinstalling xcode, but nothing helped. What else could I try?Thank you.

Hello, I'd like to know if it is possible to pre-approve NETransparentProxyManager configuration using Apple MDM software or third party alternative like jamf, so that users won't see the approval dialogue. If so, is there any documentation for it? Thanks, Jakub

Hello. After submitting OSSystemExtensionRequest, we receive request: didFinishWithResult: result call and everything is fine, if the user allows the extension. The result will be OSSystemExtensionRequestCompleted. However, if the user has more extensions to allow and the user simply clicks OK button without selecting any extension in System preferences dialogue, we still receive OSSystemExtensionRequestCompleted. Is this a bug? Or is there some other way of detecting if the user allowed our sext (we are using network extension) Thank you, Jakub edit: This might happen only if the user checks and then unchecks the system extension before clicking OK

Hello. According to Apple documentation, Developer ID Installer Certificate (Mac applications): If your certificate expires, users can no longer launch installer packages for your Mac applications that were signed with this certificate. https://developer.apple.com/support/certificates/ However, using installer signed before expiration, I can still install the application, even after certificate has expired and installer even shows it as Expired but valid. Could you please clarify if the quote above is true? Or how is it possible that I can still install the application? Thank you, Jakub

Hello, we first noticed that our symlinks in the Installer are not working properly in the first beta of Ventura 13.1. Since then, we have created a feedback post (FB11813706) and tried different ways of creating them, but the Finder still seems to not be able to open them. Instead, when double-clicking the symlink/alias, only a terminal instance is opened. Do you plan on deleting this feature from macOS? Or is this only a finder bug that you are aware of and will be fixed? Thank you, Jakub.

Hello. We are currently creating our dmg with hdiutil and I was wondering if it would be possible to have localized resources in it. Right now, we have a single background image for every locale. Would it be possible to have different background image based on user locale, also with default background image as a backup in case we don't have users locale? The use case for this is the Quebec's Bill 96 Law 14, stating that products sold in Quebec have to be localised in Canadian french. Thank you.
