AI Recommendation
1 suggestionKensingtonWorksHelper is not a standalone application — it is a system helper component that ships as part of the Kensington Works package. To update this component to its native Apple Silicon build, update the parent Kensington Works application itself. The native build has already been confirmed running on Macs in our community, so a native version is available. Visit Kensington's support site or download page to obtain the latest version of Kensington Works for macOS, which will include the native helper component. If you installed Kensington Works through an auto-updater or system utility, check that tool's settings for updates — it will pull the native build automatically. Once Kensington Works is updated to a native version, the helper component updates with it.
