Homebrew Cask installations fail on macOS 13 due to missing Cask folder

[marcocebrian]

I can't barely install any apps. Always getting this error:

I have given it permission to access to whole drive. Still same problem with all apps.

I have the same problem, home-brew installed, full disk permissions, accessibility in system preferences enabled, still have not been able to install a single app.

I had this issue, talked to the developer on Discord and he helped me fix this!
My issue on an M1 Mac running MacOS 13 beta .. I Know😏 was fixed by:
Creating the missing folder: ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew/Cask/
The directory touch ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew/ existed, not the Cask folder here. Just created this folder, relaunched AppFair, and all worked great!

Tnx so much!!!

Interesting to hear that this happens on the macOS 13 beta. I haven't heard any other reports about it on macOS 12 yet.

Once I get set up with the beta I'll try to see if I can reproduce.
