I continue to be fine with the idea of removing the cask, as we did with Audacity.

Error: pkg source file not found: 'FreeFileSync_10.11_macOS.pkg'

How to fix.

thats not useful in this case, as the 'pkg source' is not the problem, its the download protection that prevents the actual file being downloaded

I’m aware, though I wasn’t at the time of that reply.

i've tried defeating their download protection for a while and have concluded its not easily possible.

its very easy to think to have defeated it because every time you visit their download page they remember your IP and let you through for a few days.
