I'm unable to run a test on a MacBook Pro running Monterrey v12.1 I get the below error. I tried the following:

1. tccutil reset ScreenCapture com.devexpress.testcafe-browser-tools
2. tccutil reset AppleEvents com.devexpress.testcafe-browser-tools
3. npm install testcafe-browser-tools

...Run npm audit for details

Hi,

Try removing the .testcafe-browser-tools folder from your home directory. If this does not help, try executing the following command:

chmod +x "/Users/{user}/.testcafe-browser-tools/TestCafe Browser Tools.app/Contents/MacOS/testcafe-browser-tools"

Also, if you are using the M1 chip, try installing Rosetta 2. If the problem still persists, add a sample project and a video to demonstrate how you reproduce the issue. Make sure that the callstack with the problem is also visible.

Thanks for your response. I had tried removing the browser tools folder, but the issue persisted. However, exe the chmod +x cmd recommended above seemed to resolve that error.
