Please enable the TablePlus Inc, which is Proxyman.

The reason is: the macOS system doesn't clear the old name of the Helper Tool. If you remove the helper Tool, and reinstall again -> It will show Proxyman with proper App Icon 👍

The "TablePlus Inc" name doesn't affect how Proxyman Helper works.

However, if you;d like to fix it:

  1. Open Terminal app -> Run: sfltool resetbtm
  2. Restart the macOS
  3. Done

I could not find a better solution to request the macOS to clear the Login Items cache 😿

Sorry, it's not your fault. I've added the color, so make it's noticeable 👍
