Getting warning 'You are opening the application “MacVim” for the first time' every time opening MacVim

[Naitreey]

Steps to reproduce

I'm getting the warning dialogue every time opening a text file in Finder into MacVim app:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Finder, find a text file.
2. Right click it and open it with MacVim.
3. macOS warning dialogue shows up.
4. Click "Open" the file will open in MacVim.
5. Quit MacVim completely with cmd+q.
6. Repeat, the warning dialogue shows up again.

But I won't get the warning if I open the file in terminal with gvim command.

Expected behaviour

The warning dialogue should show up only for the first time launching MacVim, not every time.

This is not a MacVim issue. That dialog comes from MacOS. You probably need to reset launch services.

This issue should be closed.

Closing issue. As the above comment said, I don't think MacVim is doing anything weird here. Can reopen if that doesn't fix the issue.
