MacOS 27.2 Resetting Local Network Access Under Privacy Settings

[u/Lloyd_Christmasss]

Can anyone confirm 27.2 includes the ability to remove apps from local network access under privacy settings? There has been a long-standing issue where apps can just build up in there even when they're deleted. There's no easy way to reset it without going through safe mode since local network access no longer resides within tccutil like the rest of the privacy stuff (microphone, camera, etc.)

I found this article suggesting that 27.2 finally brings a proper solution.

Edit: 27.2 is now public and they did fix it. Under privacy & Security>local network there is now a +/- for removing apps.

Yea, it has it. But I think it’s an old one

What do you mean by old one? I figured there would be a little minus somewhere near each app in the list where you can remove it. If it's a remnant from an uninstalled app then it would just be gone for good finally once you remove it. If it's an app still installed the next time you open the app it should give the prompt for allowing local network access or not as if it was the first time you installed the app.
