Bro I got you, it took me way to long how to figure out how to do this, I was asking chat GPT how to help me with a seperate article that never worked lolol but this is super simple, they just explained it somewhat confusing so it was easy to mess up

Alright first step is finding the WineVersionsFetcher.py file

This is found by going to your Applications > Right Click on PlayOnMac > Show Package Contents > Contents > Resources > Playonlinux > Python > WineVersions

Now Open the WineVersionsFetcher.py file 

Add "import ssl" below "import traceback" and above "import urllib.request"

Now Add "ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context" below "self.operating_system = operating_system" and above "def fetch_all_available_wine_version(self, callback, error):"


DONT ADD THE PLUS SIGN Like The other guy had in his post. I gave up and was about to quit this all until it clicked that maybe he didnt literally mean add the plus sign and boom, I stopped adding that and it worked. I never use the terminal so not putting the plus sign is probably super obvious to anybody that ever has. But yeah as long as you just find the right file and add those two additions in the right spots than you're good

I followed the instructions to the T and am getting the following error when trying to launch PoM: "PlayOnMac has encountered a fatal error, and will now terminate." "An uncaught exception was raised during the execution of the main script. This may mean that an unexpected error has occurred, or that you do not have all the dependencies for this application. See the Console for a detailed traceback."

If I remove the script above than the application launches but there aren't any wine versions available. 

Also, looking at console doesn't show any errors or tracebacks that I can find.
