[macOS 13 Ventura] Failed to register SlowQuitApps to launch on login

Open mdaloia opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

It seems that SMLoginItemSetEnabled() does not work in Ventura (13.0) and register() should be used instead:

To enable or disable LoginItems in macOS 13 and later, use the register() and unregister() methods instead.

On launch, when Yes is hit... image

... a failure is shown: image

I hope someone is able to pick this up for an update.

A quick workaround: right click app icon in the dock and select Open at Login.

The suggested Workaround does not work for me :(

You guys can use my version for walk around fix. https://github.com/warkcod/SlowQuitApps/releases/tag/0.8.2 Support macOS Venture, build with Xcode v14.3, Removed the annoying popup dialog. Use crontab to fix this and also fix a bug which sometime it does not work after long time running.

  • crontab -e
    30 * * * * sh killAndStart.sh
    Restart the app every 30 minutes slicensely.

Tested in macOS Venture V13.3.1
