catalina preference security privacy
Currently I have an iMac 10.15.7 with the problem “unable to open the “security and privacy” preference tab”
I summarize below the various tests that were undertaken.
When I try to modify my system preferences and more specifically those concerning security and confidentiality.
I get the message: “Could not load Security & Privacy preference”.
However, from the command line:
:; tccutil reset All
Successfully reset All
I remove file : ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
I used SOS on the 2 partitions (system and data) of my disk, I used onyx. I reloaded Catalina.
I still get the same message “Could not load Security & Privacy preference pane. »
Following your advice, on my iMac, I created a new 'test' administrator and logged in with this new account. The problem persists.
Then, in recovery mode,
rm /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/Library/Application\ Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db
and reboot
The problem persists
Then :
sudo diskutil resetUserPermissions / `id -u`
[...]
Ready to reset user permissions on disk2s5 Interne
Started verify/repair permissions on disk2s5 Interne
User permissions have been reset
Finished verify/repair permissions on disk2s5 Interne
[~]:; tccutil reset All
Successfully reset All
Then :
rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.plist
rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.revocation.plist
Insufficient, The problem persists
Finally,
I wiped and deleted the internal drive then reinstalled Catalina then migrated from Time Machine.
Without success. The problem persists
Is there a command from the terminal, even in secure mode; if necessary; to restore the possibility
to change security and privacy preferences?
Or another workaround ?
Thank you in advance for your help during this Advent season 😔
