I verified my disk permissions using Disk Utility. It came up with errors which it fixed - fine. Then, I decided to just run it again, immediately. Same errors - same fixes. So I did it again using Techtool Pro - same again.

First - what is happening?
Second - I assume there's no harm in running the repair permissions utility 3 times in a row?

Can someone else try it and let me know if they get the same issue?

There shouldn't be a problem with repeated permissions repair, but instead try OnyX Titanium's Software • Download for your OS version. Run Script Maintenance as well.

PS. please post your Mac specs and MacOS version in your profile, it helps us to help you better.

Same thing with Onyx - run it 2 or more times, I get the same errors being 'repaired'.
