Apple MacOS allow downloaded programs to run
In MacOS, when we try to run a standalone program or open an app downloaded from Internet, then MacOS's security will prevent us from running the program. In order to execute the program or app, the following commands can be executed in Terminal to remove the quarantine attribute associated with the file. Unblock a standalone program sudo xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/your/program Unblock an app Recursively remove the attribute in the app bundle sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /path/to/YourApp.app
