Disable Ability to Delete an App(s) on MacBook Pro Hi! I have different apps on my MacBook Pro that I use for my wellbeing. Such as a timer that locks my computer down every 25 minutes for 5 minutes to take an "enforced" eye break. And a porn blocker, social media limiter, and other similar things. Although of course, willpower and discipline can fade and cause me to delete these apps in Finder easily and quickly go back to my old bad habits. My question is, is there anyway I can block myself from being apple to delete apps or certain apps on a MacBook Pro? I know on iOS there's the ability in Screen Time to block oneself from deleting any apps. That would work sufficiently here as well, but seems to be a feature exclusive for iPhones. Does anyone know of anyway I can block myself from being able to delete these apps (or all apps would work too)? Any features in System Preferences, or any third-party softwares on the internet or app store? I could even do a little coding if it wasn't that complicated :-) (but please keep in minded I'm a newbie coder, yet am technologically well-rounded). Thanks so much!!!!! <3

Disable Downtime for Third-Party Application The Downtime feature, when running, is disabling an application that I installed from a third-party (via Java). However when I go to the "Always Allowed" tab of Screen Time in order to disable the block, the application is not even in the list of apps. How can I disable Downtime from blocking this app? It works for other apps but it's frustrating that I'd have to constantly enter the password to allow the app to run while using the Downtime feature.
