[PyQt] com.apple.xbs Error-- Please help- Thank you

[Barry]

I don't use an IDE.

I use Barry's Emacs and the editor and a terminal shell to ru the code.

It seems the IDE is getting in your way.

The menus are exactly as expected on macOS as I remarked.

>> *I have looked everywhere for this com.apple.xbs folder, including other computers. I cannot find it anywhere on other computers or online. What is the issue? Apparently it is only for developers? I have signed up as a developer and still cannot find it. I do not see the correlation between apple and this PyQt5 program though. I also do not see anywhere in the code that would mention needing this folder.
