Thank you, James. I am hoping to install this on the new computer hopefully on Tuesday, Feb 11.

I was ultimately successful and if you are stuck at Catalina with a new machine or have run the update without realizing then this build will get you by as I add back in re-built versions of the original plugins.

Including linking a bank account to the app store even though I do not currently have any software on the app store and was not applying XTension to it. But I have no done that linking and filled out all the tax forms that they wanted as if I was suddenly going to make a lot of money selling software through them that I haven’t actually written yet ;)

So if you discover something else that doesn’t work properly I’ll be as surprised about it as you are.

If anyone gives it a try and learns one way or the other please let me know.
