Hello,

we use Jamf Pro Cloud 10.30 at the moment. With Jamf Pro Tools (Composer 10.31) and even older Composer versions, it is apparently no longer possible for me to include files on the user's desktop in the package, so that I can deploy these files to the user desktops via DMG and fut. The error message as shown in the picture always appears. Does anyone know the problem or has a workaround?

Thank you!

Can you explain what this solution does and why it worked? Many novices as myself appreciate context for solutions that might apply to other scenarios.

We use a separate clean workstation (only Jamf tools installed) (and I personally use Parallels VM) to create packages.  guaranteed to a clean package creation with no other app interference

@TSOAFTVPPCsorry for late answer... what i´ve found is, that this terminal command is updating the file attributes... does that help you?

I have this issue as well but the terminal command marked as a solution is not working for me. Anyone have any advice?
