Side note: In the past, I would've recommended a tool called ADCDownload, which allows you to resume downloads from Apple Developer website. But it hasn't ...

You can open them up in chrome with the extension "office editing for docs sheets and slides" by google. Works pretty fast on my computer. And I use chrome anyway so it's nice for me.
Downsides are that it doesn't seem to work for double clicking on macOS (you might have to drag the file into chrome or type the path) and the save feature wont save to .doc ...

This is the copy-and-pasteable "one liner" that I used to remove ZoomOpener, which was still running even after uninstalling Zoom:
pkill ZoomOpener; \
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to delete login item "ZoomOpener"'; \
rm -r ~/.zoomus
If you need to keep Zoom installed, then touch ~/.zoomus to prevent ZoomOpener from being reinstalled.

It's noteworthy that ZoomOpener.app runs a webserver on port 19421 that persists even after you uninstall the zoom.us app for OSX. You can verify whether the webserver is running on your machine by running this command:
lsof -i :19421
A security vulnerability with the webserver was recently discovered, patched, opened again via regression, and patched ...

I think those application are auto downloading any update or one of the downloading process has disturbed previously. Because of that the downloaded status is displayed as a % of the total download with that clock mark. You can see it with your self by simply adding a new download intentionally.

It might not be available at the moment in either your Store or anywhere at all.
You had downloaded it in the past, so it has the cloud and arrow but due to some reasons, the app is not on the App Store, thus the greyed out icon.

An easy way to check this is to install Xcode for free from the App Store and look at each simulator for each device you care to catalog.
I suppose someone could make a reference table or Wikipedia article to document this over time, but I’m not convinced this would be useful for things other than a trivia question.

I'm not sure if it would work correctly, but xinput is included in XQuartz, an implementation of the X Window System for macOS. You can invoke it via Terminal.

An easy way to do this is with
Keyboard Maestro
which can run commands to open apps together or quit a group
of apps when a particular app quits.
All you'd need to do is specify the app that you want to monitor when it quits, and then tell it to quit the other apps as well.

An Automator app doesn't usually stay open after its run if all it's doing is opening a few apps. That said, since you want to open and close the same apps with a single app that stays open and then closes the target apps when you quit the app that opened them, I would choose to do this with a stay open AppleScript application.
The following example ...

Two things to research when you purchase apps.
Are you licensed to run two copies on two different Macs a the same time. Generally OK for home use and not for business use. App Store licensing means if you get the App from Apple's store, you know the terms clearly. If not - you'll need to know how the vendor work it.
Just save the working files to a server ...

Each application needs to be designed for sharing. You need to check on each application's ability to share.

I doubt such an app exists even for iOS, leave aside watchOS, for watching Finder file operation progress. This is a very specific use case and I am not certain if there are any official APIs that lets you obtain this data in a watchOS or iOS app.
A simple solution that I can think of is to install a VNC viewer app on your iPhone (many available on the App ...

That arrow just means that you have downloaded that app before and it is linked to your purchase history.
But you may have also found apps that have a cloud icon in place of the price, and you might be wondering why. This indicates that the app has already been purchased with your Apple ID (This includes free apps. Even free apps are “purchased”, they ...

Screen Time settings were preventing the app from being uninstalled from my iPhone. The setting can be found by going to Settings app → Screen Time → Content & Privacy Restrictions → iTunes & App Store Purchases → Deleting Apps. The setting was set to Don't Allow.
