SUMMARY Trying to view an album in file manager causes digikam to hang in the 7.9.0 prerelease. This happens every time and is reproducible on demand for me. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open digikam 2. Choose Albums tab, pick an album 3. Right click and choose "Open in file manager" OBSERVED RESULT Album opens, but digikam becomes unresponsive. Even a "force quit", doesn't work, and I have to do a kill on EXPECTED RESULT Album should open in file manager, but digikam should remain useable.

I tested here with 7.9.0 pre-release under MacOS Ventura and a Macbook Air M1 : it's work as expected, but MacOS ask to give the right to digiKam to open the file manager. Typically, if MacOS do not open the dialog box to give right to digiKam (i already seen this situation in the past, and i do not know why this happen), go the MacOS control panel and tune this settings manually.

Hello, and thanks for your reply. What settings do you mean in the control panel? I have set digikam for full disk access (I'll attach snippets of screen snapshots). Is there something else I need to do? If nothing else, this is an opportunity to improve the documentation so the MacOS users have a better experience.

And i tried with digiKam 8.0.0 and current 8.1.0 pre-release, and open album in Finder work as expected (macOS 12.6.3).
I'm not sure why I was getting the error since I had the proper permissions in the control panel, but I can now confirm too that version 8.0.0 on 12.6.4 works for me on M1 Apple silicon.
