hi so i downloaded unity hub, and i was downloading 2019.4.40f1 and by the editor application it says 'install failed: permission denied, mkdir “/Applications/Unity”. what do i need to do?

@iffidevelopment it didn’t work for me. Any other methods?

Open a terminal and do the following:

  1. cd /Applications
  2. sudo mkdir Unity
  3. sudo chmod 777 Unity
  4. Try to install again.

Hey,

The issue is that you are probably not an administrator on your laptop.
What operating software do you have? (windows or apple/mac?)

hey, i have the same issue and it does not work… i am in mac any suggestions? not an administrator…should i try it in administrator account?

Open Application folder Right click → Get info → and set privilege.
