In Finder, could you try right clicking on the dmg file and select "Open"?

fanlessfan commented 3 years ago

I assume you can't run it even if you right click and select "Open" again on the app?

fanlessfan commented 3 years ago

no. I can't run it. I even try to run the command "sudo ./smcutil -w BCLM 3C" ,which worked in beta zip, has the exact same error.

fanlessfan commented 3 years ago

I can still run the command using the smcutil in beta zip. I guess it might be something change in the new smcutil in the v1.4

I like the simplicity of your app without installation.

godly-devotion commented 3 years ago

Okay I found a workaround to this issue. I've updated the release build. Could you try downloading the new dmg file? When opening the app, try right-clicking and select "Open", but do this twice. The second time, you should get an option to "Open" the app.

Second time: image
