macOS: Updating from Versions 0.2.1 and Earlier

Versions 0.2.2 and above are code-signed, which means its internal app identity has changed from 0.2.1 and earlier versions. Because of this, the new version cannot access data previously stored in the Keychain by the unsigned builds. Fortytwo continues to use macOS Keychain to securely store your private key at system level.When launching the new version, macOS may ask for your system password to grant Fortytwo access to its secure data — you have two options:
  1. You can safely enter your password and click “Always Allow” to avoid future prompts
  2. Or you can delete the previous data and restore your profile in the new version as described below:
