Error Message: Couldn't change user
Problem:
Synk is unable to run as another user (typically root).
This error usually occurs because the Synk Engine has lost its authentication to run as a different user.
Try the following:
- Backup: Relaunch the application. The setup wizard will appear, allowing you to reauthenticate the Synk Engine.
- Std/Pro: Disable, then re-enable the "allow user to run as other users" option in the security preferences.
