Fix for VLC nightly build damaged alert when launching.

Postby lenn55 » 17 Apr 2023 19:27

The only way i can get the nightly builds on my M1 16" MBP to run without getting the app is damaged alert is to enter this command in the Terminal. Not sure why this "bug" hasn't been fixed yet

If I remove the quarantine attribute, it launches just fine.

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/VLC.app
