Trying to download the free Trial version to use for 30 days.
Mac OS United States
Get an Application Error:
java.lang.IllegalStateExeption:

“The platform metadata area could not be written: /private/var/folders/83/…/T/AppTranslocation/…/d/Katalon Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/config/.metadata. By default the platform write its content under the current working directory when the platform is launched. Use the -data parameter to specify a different content area for the platform.”

**Says can use ‘-data’ option to change that directory. How? Is that appropriate director to use instead?
Thank you.

Hi @corinne.thompson, welcome to our Katalon community. Can you try to move Katalon Application to your Apple device application’s folder? This should grant permission for your device to run Katalon. Please let me know if this works. Thank you.
