Can I suggest that the development team for CTA3 (and maybe CTA4) on the Mac (the main app, Reallusion Hub and Content Downloader, and their updates as well) to check through the files and folders permission settings before packaging them for distribution? For example, the original folder permission settings for "/Users/Shared" has been changed from "1777" to "0777", removing the sticky bit when installing the CTA3 main app. Also, Reallusion files and folders and its sub-folders, especially in "/Library/" are created with world-writable (0666 or 0777) permission. I know it will not affect the running of the app or macOS, but security-wise, it is not advisable to leave them open unnecessarily.

Thank you for the feedback. This has been passed to the CTA development team so they can check to see if there are any permission settings that need changing.
