Hi,

Issue: Backup folder contents not being modified based on rule.

- running Monterey (macOS 12.2.1)
- hazel 5.1.1

I have added
- ~/Library/Application Support/Mobile Sync/Backup to hazel
- added hazel to System Preferences/Privacy/Full Disk access
- checked the status and it shows the rule matching

rule
- any file
then
- set label color to red

observation:
- menulet hazel menu "Run rules > Backup" shows a "red" indicator (previously seen when you don't have access to a folder but doesn't show that in the hazel app interface.

checked the log
- why doesn't hazel of permission to see that file if it has full disk access?

Code: Select all

Received error while processing file /Users/<omitted>/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=257 "The file “Backup” couldn’t be opened because you don’t have permission to view it."

Ok looks like you had to add hazel to the accessibility option in privacy.

that solved the issue.
