Hi SMUGgers,
I’ve just installed Ventura (like you do) and was bombarded by a dialog with something to the effect of “DisplayLinkUserAgent has been damaged and cannot be used” about every 3 seconds.
I’ve found out it was a 2019 version of DisplayLink by Synaptics.com so I downloaded & installed their latest version and all is well. 😃
However … I have no idea why it’s there, why I would want it (something to do with external displays which I don’t have) or if something else might have installed it, or did I choose to install it myself after too much wine one evening?
Any thoughts welcome x I’d just like to remove it.
Cheers,
Stephen

it runs a second monitor over USB via specific hardware so I think you can lose it safely.
