Granting permission to an installer Hi, I was about to install a software thorugh an installer file and it asked for permission to access my downloads folder. I was hesitant to grant it the permission so I clicked on No, hoping it would still be installed. But it did not install on my mac. I tried to install it again, this time ready to give permission to it, but it no longer asked for permission which means it did not install as well. I tried downloading the installer again, rebooting my mac, clearing my history and cach, but none of them worked! Any solutions to make the installer ask for permission again? Thank you!

By default, you have to grant permission for each website to allow downloads. There are settings in Safari to default all to allow/ask/deny.

I don't know how Chrome manages it.
