[X] Bug Report
[ ] Feature Request
[X] Successfully reproduced against the latest version of NW.js?
Current/Missing Behavior
Cannot run downloaded nwjs due to macos security concerns. Previously the downloaded nwjs.app could be made to run by right-click on the app and select 'Open' (the first time only, after that it worked by double-clicking)
Expected/Proposed Behavior
I expected to be able to run the downloaded nwjs version by right-clicking nwjs.app and selecting 'Open' as before
Additional Info
Problem is solved by this command (which I have not seen documented on the download page)
sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/nwjs.app
One solution may be to hint this on the download page?
The installation procedure I use is to unzip the downloaded file
nwjs-sdk-v0.89.0-osx-arm64
, and then copy thenwjs.app
from the unzipped folder into/Applications
