Why I Get a No Such File or Directory Error on macOS
In the terminal in macOS, I can execute certain commands manually. I'd like to create a simple script that I can run through the Terminal shell. But when I run this, I get the following error: zsh: no such file or directory.

First, check that your command line in the script is in the correct format. PATH is a list of directories in which commands can be found, separated by colons. The path in the command you use that doesn't work may be explicitly quoted and preceded by "~/." When you do that, the system searches for \/ as a literal path rather than the extended path of the user's home directory.
Basically, zsh will run the initial find and try your command name with each path. There won't be a zsh command not found error message if any of the specified folders are missing; instead, zsh will fail to locate a binary there and go on to the next one.
Moreover, you risk losing your files and data if the zsh tools are accidentally upgraded or commands are entered erroneously. Therefore, it would be advantageous to be vigilant in securing your data. This excellent data recovery tool is EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard for Mac.
Note: To prevent more data loss, you should make a backup of your Mac by clicking "Disk Backup" on the left sidebar before trying to recover your data.
Step 1. Click "Search for lost files" after selecting the drive from which you need to recover lost or deleted files.
Step 2. If you are searching for a specific file, you can sort the scanned results to locate it.
Step 3. View the files, then select "Recover" to recover your lost or lost Mac files.
Finally, if you cannot access files or applications in a certain directory on Mac, confirm again whether administrator rights are required to access the target.
