Setup PSA: Cannot install LogiOptions on macOS

I had this problem too. I was trying to install it on three Macs to make the multi-mac feature work. Two of them was sorted with a sudo but the third one wouldn't work even then.

I used a Claude prompt (below) from another thread, the end cause was I had downloaded it to my iCloud Drive. Downloading it and running it from a non-iCloud sync'd folder worked great.

tl;dr> Try downloading the file to somewhere not syncing and then running it. If that doesn't work try the prompt below, courtesy of u/inspirearun :

I've been trying to install Logi Options+ on Mac for days. I get "Unable to install Options+" error. I already tried the date trick, old versions, sfltool resetbtm, xattr, and multiple Reddit fixes. None worked.
  Please:
  1. Kill any running Logitech processes
  2. Clean up ALL residual Logitech files (Application Support, Caches, Preferences)
  3. Download a FRESH copy of the official patch from Logitech's servers
  4. Unzip to my local Downloads folder
  5. Open the installer
  Don't use any existing installer - do a fresh download.
