Was FGU running before the last update?

smelton,
Yes, it was running before the last update, and I think after the last app update, too - this hit me when I ran the updater the day I've started the thread.
I've been trying different things, and I think this is a local permissions issue, and not an FG app issue - I just haven't figured out the full resolution.
What I discovered is:
1. a different user logged in under different FG account (i.e. 2nd demo account that I use as a client when I'm running a game on my main iMac) could launch FGU and everything behaved as normal, even after all of the various updates I ran (including forced updates).
2. I built a new user (non-admin) but had some odd problems - FGU would launch, but the FantasyGroundsUpdater.app wouldn't (no window appeared). FGUpdaterEngine.app launched, but I couldn't finish setting up a user, because I couldn't change permissions needed with this user.
3. I converted the user to an admin user, and had the same issues, with the message "Fantasy Grounds Updated does not have write acces to either the Application or Data directory."
4. I ran FGUpdaterEngine.app via sudo and was able to enter my regular user and Ultimate license info. At this point I can launch FantasyGrounds.app, or FGUpdaterEngine.app (but get the error in #3 but can continue to the Updater), but FantasyGroundsUpdater.app still won't launch.
At this point, I am wondering if installing under my regular admin user has mangled permissions, but I am not sure why, since I didn't do anything nonstandard with the install. As this isn't a critical computer (primarily 2nd user and testing) I would like to wipe everything fantasy grounds and then am thinking of re-installing from a freshly created admin user that has no history.
My new question is, other than the App and Data folder, plus Library/Preferences/Smiteworks folders, is there any other location I need to delete?
Alternatively, is there anything in this narrative that suggests something specific that I should fix, or any logs you might be interested in seeing?
Thanks
G

UPDATE
I deleted the Smiteworks folder in Applications, the Smitework user folders, and the Smiteworks preferences folder, then installed from a newly created admin-level account.
After the install, the new admin user, and other (non-primary) users can launch FGU.
My primary user (also admin-level) still won't launch FantasyGrounds.app (crash before screens appear), but if I launch FantasyGrounds.app via sudo (and the extended path inside the package), FGU will launch as expected.
This definitely is a permissions issue. I have no idea where, unfortunately. Initially, when I ran the FantasyGroundsUpdater, I had a "permissions" error window in the updater, for which the fix options wouldn't work, but when I ran this as admin (via SUDO), that stopped happening.

Thanks for letting us know. I've forwarded to @smelton, so that he can see what you've done.

I was wondering if you have been able to find a fix for this as I seem to be experiencing a similar permission issue. I'm running version is v4.1.2 on macOS Big Sur. I'm able to launch the updater without issue, but Fantasy Grounds.app fails to load. I have tried multiple reinstalls but with no success. Running the app via terminal with sudo works but I'm hoping for a solution that doesn't require this work around.

I haven't solved the problem - I have been focused on other parts of life since February and haven't followed up with @smelton.
This isn't my primary computer so I put up with it.

I get this problem reliably since around february on Big Sur on an M1 mac Mini so its a Rosetta issue. When the OS updates the problem disappeared. Then a few days later its back again. I have reinstalled it and now it works again (didn't bother uninstalling first). I am expecting it to fail again in a few days - let's see.

I'm consistently getting this on an M1 Macbook Air with Big Sur. Just did an uninstall and reinstall, no luck. It did run without issue previously. I'm exploring whether Malwarebytes is blocking it, but I've had that installed since day one so I doubt it.
