I did today. Solved!

Here is the solution should someone needs it:

Thanks for contacting Waves Tech Support.

To solve the issue, please follow the steps below:

  1. Go to the Applications folder.
  2. Right-click Waves Central and click Show Package Contents.
  3. Go to Resources > res > external > data
  4. Right-click [uninstallHelperTool.sh](http://. uninstallhelpertool.sh/) and click Open With > Terminal
  5. A browsing window will open, browse to Applications > Utilities, and double-click on Terminal.
  6. Note*: If Terminal is greyed out and can’t be clicked, please change the browsing settings to allow all applications.*
  7. Let the script run. Once it’s done, relaunch Waves Central.

If you are asked to grant permissions to Waves Central / InstlHelper Tools, please allow it and type in your computer’s user password.

Glad they were able to help. It’s a bit bizarre that it wouldn’t run in the first place. Probably something to do with the overzealous security systems that we are all facing today.
