Hi @id192313 u can try to give SuperSlicer Full Disk Access permission. For that, just go to Security & Privacy Preferences > Privacy and click Full Disk Access from the left panel.

Installed 2.4.59.2 on MacOS 11.7.7 (Intel) today - same error message as reported aboce. Also after granting full access as proposed. Any idea ?

I'm getting this all of the sudden. Upon opening the software, sometimes i would get a couple of the dialog boxes, would click ok a few times and it went away. Now it seems to be the endless cycle. Can't get past it. Running 2.5.59 and have been using it for a few weeks now without much issue.

Just did a force quit, reopened, and the dialog boxes did not come back. Works fine now.

Strange behaviour. I'll return with more details if I find any.

Did you by chance copy a config from a Windows machine? I had this happen as well and was checking here before raising an issue. I mainly use a Windows laptop to slice, but I have a Mac in my basement to serve as my hobby bench machine and a BlueBubbles server (forwards messages between iMessage and my Pixel 7). Needed to slice something and I copied my config folder backup into my Mac version. I was met with that same unending error. I resolved it by using a text editor on the printer config to remove the paths for the build plate 3d model and overlay image.

I managed to solve the problem. I restored the previous version of SuperSlicer and in the printer settings, I removed all the backgrounds (textures) that were highlighted in red (some corrupted PNG file).

Then I replaced SuperSlicer with the newer version, and it started without any errors.
