AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThis is a system internet plug-in, not a standalone application, and cannot be updated directly through the App Store or a separate vendor download. Internet plug-ins are installed and updated by their vendor as part of a larger product or system integration. To determine the correct update path, you should contact Touchenex directly to identify which Touchenex product or service installed this plug-in on your Mac, then use that product's official update mechanism. If you are unsure whether this plug-in is still in use, or if the vendor is still active, you may safely remove it by deleting the plug-in file from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ — this will not affect core macOS functionality. Be aware that this plug-in is currently an Intel-only binary and will not function once Apple removes Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), so confirming with the vendor whether a native Apple Silicon version is available, or whether the plug-in will be replaced by an updated product, is important if you rely on this functionality.
