on my iMac, I lately keep getting “An error has occurred while enabling browser integration.” on the Desktop App.

I don’t have the same troubles on my macbookpro, so something is “weird” on the iMac… what/where can I delete/trash/clear to look at fixing this issue?

seems to impact all browsers, not just Brave (my main browser)

The other similar problems are all Windows related, not macOs, so what/where on macOS do I delete/etc. to fix this issue.

It must be the AppSotre version of BitWarden desktoip I should use, correct? and if I installed the HomeBrew version before, what else do I need to clear out?

This link describes where the app data folders are located for each version: Storage | Bitwarden Help Center

Try uninstalling the app, then deleting the corresponding data folder.

Thanks, but those didn’t work either ;(

I ended up doing that, and then ALSO kill the fingerprints, and the iTouch keyboard, and re-established the iTouch and then at least the biometrics worked… recalled it was a couple of reboots later that the browser stuff sorta worked again

and a reboot or two later, it’s not working on this machine AGAIN… works fine on my MBP laptop, but not the iMac desktop

SI, I have an external disk for my home directories - 4TB instead of the measly 250GB inside the iMac… and will have the same problems I guess when I move/setup my MacMini M2Pro + 4TB external drive ;(

How to fix???
