Description

I have replaced all bundle identifiers as well as apps group in order to build AltStore. It builds without errors but at launch I get:

"Unable to Launch AltStore"
The file "Apps" couldn't be saved in the folder "Application Support

Could you help me to build the app?
iOS: 13.3
iPhone 6s

Start by reproducing the launch failure on iOS 13.3 after replacing the bundle identifiers and app group, focusing on the attempt to save the file "Apps" in Application Support. Done means the built AltStore app launches without that save error.
