MacOS Issues: "Damaged and can't be opened" - Solution #77

Closed SonarSonic closed 1 year ago

This issue seems to be resolved. Ventura apparently changed the warning dialog which appears when opening an unsigned application, and added a second layer of confirmation too.

The app can be opened by going to System Preferences --> Privacy and Security, then clicking "Open Anyway". The OS will give a second error, but returning to System Preferences and following the same process again will force it to open.

Thanks @JackWH - another fix for people with this issue is allowing apps from more sources.
