Can Not Unblock Application on High Sierra The application can not be unblocked.



When I open the application it tells me that I must unblock the program in the mac os settings. I open the settings and it says 'Some software was blocked from loading.' Next to that is the unblock button which does not do anything.

I have tried:

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security GKAutoRearm -bool NO

sudo spctl --master-disable


also I have tried launching the application from terminal via sudo:

 sudo ./Karabiner-Elements.app/Contents/MacOS/Karabiner-Elements


Nothing. It simply will not unblock.
Magic Prefs is the issue. Get rid of that.
