Hello! This error (hansa.hct missing) is generated from OS Catalina. The way to get around it is by going to System Preferences > Security and Privacy, and then grant Full Disk Access to the Purplesoft app:

If you are getting "Preferences Error:there was an error in Security & Privacy settings"

You can try the following:

1) Log out of your Mac OS X user account and then log in. After, try to open Security & Privacy again.

2) Run Disk Utility -> First Aid on your Mac OS X volume and verify it passes consistency checks.

3) If the above steps do not work, perform a Mac OS X recovery install. This will re-install your Mac operating system without erasing your information and data.

We are fixing as a high priority the issue of hansa.hct missing message so that it no longer shows for new installations of HW software.

If you have any questions, please let us know. Thanks!

HW Support
