Hey, the log that you sent us from the browser console is incomplete. Please copy the full output of the browser console and paste it here. Along with that it would really helpful to us if you could inform us what was the behaviour after you used sudo to run balenaEtcher. This will really help us solve your problem faster.

Hi David,

Are you by any chance running Chrome Remote Desktop on either machine? It sounds like an odd question, but I’ve similar issues (particularly on Ubuntu) where the security enabled by CRD causes permission issues on unrelated apps.

Hey. Could you try disabling the Chrome Remote Desktop to see whether it works without it?

Hi David,

On the Mac, you’ll need to remove the application per Google’s instructions: [https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/10223572?hl=en](https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/10223572?hl=en)
