Lightroom 6 (64 bit app) Incompatibility Warning in Mojave

There was a previous similar thread, where replies stopped in early 2019; is there maybe some new insights around this Lightroom 6.13 - Mojave compatibility thing?


I am facing the same warning message and wondering if there's anything i can do to make it disappear permanently (other than upgrading to a different version of Lightroom, which is not my intent).


Thanks.

This is a generic warning only. You have to do nothing, 32-bit apps continue to work on both High Sierra & Mojave.




With the release of macOS 10.15 Catalina, applications will have to be 64-bit. App developers will issue updated apps if they want their apps to work on this newest macOS upgrade

As other members of the forum mentioned, it is a generic message. As any other macOS messages there is some kind of flag somewhere to turn it ON/OFF.


If you feel confortable enough with Terminal commands, you may find the following link useful.
