Description
Keybase GUI Version: 6.0.1-20220609162338+0fc9feea3d
Error received upon updating OS
"We were unable to load KBFS (Fuse kext). This may be due to a limitation in MacOS where there aren't any device slots available. Device slots can be taken up by apps such as VMWare, VirtualBox, anti-virus programs, VPN programs and Intel HAXM.
Please run keybase log send to report the error."
Uninstalled my VPN, still will not install
