Default Still not able to use SWS/Reapack on Mac Mini ARM

I did a Clean Reaper install on a new Mac Mini ARM, 16 GB. While Reaper and VST Plugins run perfectly, I cannot get SWS Extensions and Reapack to run. I watched Joe Tidys install video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ymOax9qFQY&t=173s, I used xattr from this forum entry https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=249298, but I cannot get any extensions to show up in Reaper. Mac Security does not show the "accept anyway" option. I am at a loss. Any tipps for me? Thank you!

Does it show the "cannot be opened because the developer cannot be identified" message at startup?

If it doesn't: make sure the architecture (x86 64-bit vs ARM 64-bit) of both extensions matches REAPER's.

Thank you! They do match. I may have missed the message the first time around. It does not show up again.

Are both .dylib files in the UserPlugins subdirectory of the resource folder (Options > Show REAPER resource path in explorer/finder)? Also their names must be reaper_sws-arm64.dylib and reaper_reapack-arm64.dylib (assuming the ARM64 version of REAPER).

Yes, exactly. I repeated the process multiple times. In the past I had similar problems with vst plugins I could not get to be accepted.

Default And found it!

Okay, it seems I did NOT install the ARM Beta. I was convinced I did. I did a Reaper reinstall, then everything worked! Thank you for your time, cfillion!
