A6150, installation in MAC OS doesn't work

I followed the procedures from Manual, downloaded software for MAC OS installation and then is asks to restart computer.
After i restar, i connect adapter to USB port but the N Icon is not show ins mac's menu bar.
I don't understand why the procedure of the manufacturer doesn't work.

Hi @mariogaucher

 

Its has been a while since Apple started phasing out 32bit apps. MacOS Mojave was the last to support 32bit apps. Engineers advised that A6150 will be compatible with macOS Catalina by Q1 2020.

I figured out after some time that the icon appears on the top of the screen, in top bar, and not in the bottom bar. There is also no icon available under apps.

Hi!

 

was this intalled on macOS Catalina (10.15)?

I'm looking to buy the same adapter for my old MacBook... and would like to make sure it works in Catalina.
