Endless Access to Path Loop

[scottyd]

Hello. I just upgraded cookie and I am stuck in an endless "access to path" loop. I have looked at other solutions for this problem, but they appear to require that I access the preferences. I cannot do anything with Cookie right now. I cannot quit it, access preferences or anything. I just keep clicking "allow." I guess I have to restart my computer, which stinks because I am in the middle of a project. But when I am able to restart it and restart Cookie, how can I stop this access-loop from happening again to where I can't do anything with Cookie?

Thanks!

Dave

You can force quit Cookie from Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor.app
you can then reset Cookie, by deleting the ~/Library/Containers/Cookie

In version 6.6, Cookie now has a Remove all Sandbox Permissions button inside the path access window. So you will always be able to escape from this loop, if you ever find Cookie continually asking.
