Trouble Previewing Rule Sun Apr 06, 2025 3:13 pm • by sccardais
When I try to preview a rule, I get this error dialogue.

Cannot change folder.
You can only preview files within the currently monitored folder.


The Finder window opens briefly but then loops back to the same message. As best as I can tell, I am actually in the folder associated with the rule.

Clicking OK sends Hazel into a loop. Ultimately, I have to force quit hazel.

I realize that macOS 15.5 is beta and this may be the root cause of the problem. In that case, I'm just adding the issue for the developer to investigate.

What version of Hazel are you running?

I'm running Hazel v 6.0.4.

And, I'm running macOS v 15.5. I realize this is a beta version of the OS and that this might be the cause.

Thanks.

Does this happen on every folder or just particular ones? Can you send a video of this?
