Sonic Charge Synplant 2 macOS U2B - pknr

yes after writing the reply, it indeed timebombed for me aswell in like a week. The only solution that worked, is when I asked chatgpt to write a script that checks for the two files upon logging in and then deletes them if they exist. Here's the tutorial chatgpt gave me:

To run a script automatically after logging into macOS (not just when opening a terminal), you can use launchd, which manages login-time processes. By creating a Launch Agent, the script will run every time you log in.

Step 1: Write the Script
Write a script that checks and deletes files as needed. For example, save it as delete_files.sh.

Sample Script (delete_files.sh):

#!/bin/bash

# File paths
FILE1="/path/to/your/first/file"
FILE2="/path/to/your/second/file"

# Check and delete files
if [[ -f "$FILE1" ]]; then
rm "$FILE1"
rm "$FILE2"
echo "Files deleted: $FILE1 and $FILE2"
fi


After saving, make the script executable by running:


chmod +x /path/to/delete_files.sh



Step 2: Create a plist File for launchd
To configure a Launch Agent, create a .plist file that tells launchd to run the script at login.

Open the ~/Library/LaunchAgents directory (create it if it doesn’t exist):

mkdir -p ~/Library/LaunchAgents


Create a new .plist file, for example, com.username.deletefiles.plist (replace username with your username):

nano ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.username.deletefiles.plist


Enter the following configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>com.username.deletefiles</string>

<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/path/to/delete_files.sh</string>
</array>

<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</plist>



Make sure the /path/to/delete_files.sh reflects the actual path to your script.
Save and close the plist file.


Step 3: Load the Launch Agent
To enable this setup to run on login, load the plist file into launchd:


launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.username.deletefiles.plist


Now, the script will automatically run every time you log in. If you later want to stop it, you can unload the agent with:

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.username.deletefiles.plist

This setup will check for the specified files at each login and delete them if they exist.
