Cause

It is possible that for some reason the user permissions have changed for the installed Archicad folder. For example: It can happen that after restoring the Time Machine backup to the new computer the user has lost ownership over the Archicad folder.
 

Solution

 
Duplicating the installed Archicad folder and erasing the old one should fix this problem. Updating the permissions to the Archicad 20 folder should also fix the problem.
