[TOOL] [Generate Proper Problem Reporting Files]

F4 not working
 
Confused here, running catalina 10.5.2
I received the same promt -
"line 54: gen_debug: command not found"

run these 3 commands in terminal first:
Code:
sudo spctl --master-disable
sudo mount -uw /
sudo killall Finder

then copy gen_debug to /usr/bin

So I ran the three commands and now when I run the scripts it says I cannot connect to internet (also gen_debug has not been created yet)

"Installing debug report generator....
Checking your internet connection....
Unable to connect to the internet. Aborted."

I saw there is an offline method to resolve this, but I don't see how to go about that...

I am having the same issue. Using an AC53 nano adapter and also tried connecting via ethernet. Tried the offline method but getting wrong version IOregistry. - Tried moving ioregistry from zip file to applications and getting same error.

- Workaround by using offline method and using line below in terminal by Rehabman.
sudo touch /Applications/IORegistryExplorer.app/isVerified
 
thank you this helped
Sorry in advance for my lack of specialist knowledge. I have a similar problem. The 3 commands do not fix it. I have probably done something wrong. Here´s what´s in the Terminal :

"cp: /usr/bin/gen_debug: Operation not permitted"
Can the reason be that it is situated on a disk that is "read only" for other users than admin ?

it needs an update, Catalina requires /usr/local/bin/
