Problem with MacOS and permitted process #474

Hello,
I have an issue with permitted processes on macOS. I am using version 3.4.1 of SEB, and I tried it on both Sonoma and Monterey (12.7.6).
When I permit a process and check "autostart", Microsoft Word opens when I start SEB. However, if I close it, I am unable to open it again. I have the same issue with TextEdit and other permitted processes.

in the log file it said
2025/01/27 10:41:33:398 This permitted application is running and has to be quit first before ending the exam session:
(
"com.microsoft.Word"

org.safeexambrowser.SafeExamBrowser 2025-01-27--15-39-06-993.log

Is it possible to specify a path to open a specific file, like in the Windows version of SEB?

Thanks a lot for your help

Please check the information in this discussion. We will update the documentation about using permitted processes as soon as possible. Note that you need to activate the additional settings which the SEB 3.4.1 for macOS Settings window will suggest (most notably Security / AAC), otherwise additional apps won't work.
