Let me dig into this and see if it can be fixed in the next update.

The installer added in another copy of /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.OWC.HelperTool.RepairSRTool.plist as dmetz described above.  You know - the one that refers to the PrivilegedHelperTool that doesn't exist.

Probably better is use "uninstall SoftRAID", restart, then install again and reenter your license.

I also have this RepairSRTool.plist in my SoftRAID 8.1.1 installation that EtreCheck doesn't like.  I'm sure that it was installed years ago in an earlier computer and it somehow migrated to this newest Studio.

Can I delete this file without causing a problem?

what version of SoftRAID are you running? 8.1.1?
