Bypass the macOS unsigned-app warning

Section titled “Bypass the macOS unsigned-app warning”

On macOS, Codux may be blocked on first launch if the downloaded package is not notarized:

“Cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.”

Two ways to clear it:

Terminal window
sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Codux.app

Or open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down, and click Open Anyway next to the Codux warning.
