I am unable to access Applications on my iMac after installing Visual Studio

Please help me. I downloaded an app called visualstudio and now my mac wont allow me to access applications. I remember an error message popping up stating something about restrictive access mode


I am specifically trying to access the textedit.app but something is going on with my system. The applications in the applications folder are faded and wont allow me access.

I dont see the correlation but thank you PRP_53. Actually it was solved once I connected to apple support and troubleshooted by going in and out of safe mode, I was able to access the applications.

The other question specifically requested information related to and quote " Who is wheel? I see system, everyone, and wheel "



You remain welcome just the same
