    In my local Library folder there are two similar folders, one called
    "Group Containers" and the other "Group%20Containers".

    The latter is pretty clearly a mistake and some careless developer has
    used a URL-encoded form of the folder name by mistake. So I look inside
    to see who might be responsible.

    And the prize goes to... Apple with "group.com.apple.tv.sharedcontainer"

    Yay for quality control.

    On my M1 Mac running the latest Sequoia there's also a newer version of that folder in Group Containers (without the %20). Let's hope the OS is now using this newer version ;-)

    I'll raise you. 'group.is.workflow.my.app" which, of course, appears as an invalid application.
