I believe I did a thorough search previous troubleshooting posts so here goes.
xampp 8.2.0 installer 6.02.45 PM dmg
Imac Monterey 12.6.2
Processor 3.2 GHz Quad Core Intel Core i5
Setup Wizard launches are shows multiple error messages. For example: error creating directory/applications/xampp/xamppfiles ---- error changing permissions--error file from packed...etc. etc. etc.
My security locked is set to unlocked in Security and Privacy. I'm new to XAMPP as you might surmise.
