Can't install WD Discovery

Hi! I can’t seem to install WD Discovery as it always give me the message that I’m already running it… but of course, I’m not. The full installer is not an option either since it has stuck on ‘Updating WD Discovery’ load bar. I’m on macOS 11.6.

Hi @komaromimarcell,

We request you please uninstall and install the WD Discovery software.

Please refer below link to know WD Discovery Fails to Install on macOS:

Unfortunately, it is not an option to uninstall then install the WD Discovery again, as I wrote originally, upon installing it I get the message above: You are currently running the latest version of WD Discovery.

The root user installation gets the same result also.
