Hi,
I just tested the above and it still working on TV 15.45.3 (without reboot).
Make sure that TeamViewer is fully closed before running sudo python3 TeamViewer-15-id-changer-for-mac.py
% sudo python3 TeamViewer-15-id-changer-for-mac.py

Done.

/Applications/TeamViewer.app/: replacing existing signature
ID changed sucessfully.
!!! Restart computer before using TeamViewer !!!!
the problem was due to SIP enabled. After disabled, it works.
thanks
Thanx for the script!
For those who also encounter the '[Errno 1] Operation not permitted:' error.
The following easy steps worked for me:
- close TeamViewer if opened
- open system preferences
- goto to: privacy & security > Full Disk Access
- turn on the access for the terminal app (add it if missing in the list)
- restart computer before using TeamViewer as stated in the script's instruction (not sure if rebooting is realy needed, but it doesn't hurt to do so)
I have successfully run the script by using python3, Terminal show "ID changed successfully". But after that, I opened app and the id teamviewer still unchanged ?
How can I fix (teamview Version: 15.41.8, python 3) :<
