So I upgraded to Mojave recently and I got some app permission popups requesting access to system events, etc. I didn't recognise some of these the apps and didn't allow access. Now it turns out that this is being used by xcodebuild and it is failing. How can I reset all these app permissions. So that I get the popup again and I can allow this. This helped me with the app center app.rpl; wasn't working, I follow those steps and check terminal on visual studio. – Pxaml May 21 '19 at 14:29 @pxaml I was also able to reproduce the behavior for App Center app.Repl like you described.

This came up for me too. I just went into core services and told it where it was..

I had three windows pop up asking me for System Events.app. The application 'Mood Blast' was responsible for at least one of them.

I thought it might have something with login items to do -- but wasn't sure.
I had , istat menus, growlhelperapp, iscrobbler, stattoo, ituneshelper in my login items.
