Troubleshooting Power Menu

Fix common issues with Power Menu.

Right-click menu not showing Power Menu items

Power Menu needs both Accessibility and Automation permissions. Check System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility AND Automation (under Finder). Grant both.

Finder Extension not enabled

Go to System Settings > Extensions > Finder Extensions and make sure Power Menu is toggled on.

Actions greyed out

Some actions require specific file types. Check that you have selected the right type of file for the action.

Custom actions not working

Verify the shell command or AppleScript is valid by testing it in Terminal or Script Editor first.

App stopped working after macOS update

Re-grant Accessibility and Automation permissions. macOS updates sometimes reset these.
