Hi all, can anyone check if their System Preferences -> Privacy -> Full Disk Access remain intact after updating to 11.3? Mine is now completely blank, and I can't add any apps to it. I can go through the motions of adding an app back into the permission by unlocking the padlock, selecting an app with the '+' function, but then it doesn't stay, the list remains blank. And before the update I had quite a few apps in there such as malwarebytes and my virus scanner. Any ideas?

Thanks, I fixed it. Because I run my habitual account as a Standard user and have a separate Admin user account for security, for some reason the 11.3 upgrade required me to open that Admin account and let it chug through some preliminary guff, then restarting the computer miraculously put all the permissions back. Funny it only affected the Full Disk Access segment though, all the other permissions were normal.
