What happens when the bug or crash occurs?

The bug happens when you click the Screenshare button whilst in a voice channel. The permissions prompt cannot be closed, as it reopens when you try to close it. It still happens even when the permissions are correctly set.

What is the expected behaviour?

Vencord should open up the screenshare prompt and make it screenshare the screen.

How do you recreate this bug or crash?

1. Join a voice channel while on macOS Sonoma
2. Click the Screenshare button

Request Agreement

• I have searched the existing issues and found no similar issue
• I am using the latest Vesktop and Vencord versions
• This issue occurs on an official release (not just the AUR or Nix packages)

[Vendicated]

first of all it seems that your vesktop didn't properly migrate when we changed name a while ago, so you should manually delete /Users/spritzerland/Library/Application Support/VencordDesktop

once you did that, try reinstalling

[jacksongoode]

Having the same issue as reported

once you did that, try reinstalling

Same permissions spam after full reinstall.

[NotAriRay]

Same issue here, only solution I've found so far is using an older version.

[cavaevinci]

I faced the same issue,but got it fixed by going to Settings -> Privacy And Security -> Screen & System Audio Recording and adding permission to iTerm,since I build from source code on macOS.Not ideal,but makes it work.
