can't reset styles
I installed the latest Zotero update this morning and as always the styles disappeared. Before it's been possible to "reset styles" from the advanced/files and folders tab to make them reappear, but this doesn't work this time. What to do?
yours, thanks for a wonderful tool,

Can you provide a Debug ID for Zotero startup through an attempt to reset styles, using the "Restart with Logging Enabled…" option?
If I try to manually reinstall the styles, I get error messages: "An unexpected error occurred while installing "https://www.zotero.org/styles/annual-review-of-anthropology" etc.
very grateful,

I've been using Zotero for a good 10 years by now, but I'm still learning stuff. Sorry, I've never debugged before. Here is the ID: Submitted with Debug ID D986176797

Your options are basically to use a third-party package, which would allow you to keep the program directory owned as root but result in somewhat more delayed updates, or use the built-in updater, in which case it should be owned by your user account so it can update itself without your using sudo.

Directories should be 755 and files should be 644.
cd ~/Zotero
sudo chown -R `whoami` .
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
