Title: soundloomE file damaged
Post by: Alejandro on November 26, 2023, 10:50:22 PM
Hello!
I've just installed CDP on my Mac running OS Ventura 13.5, with a M1 Pro processor.
When I double click the soundloomE file, the system drops the message "soundloomE is damaged and can't be opened. You should ove ti to the Bin".
I did it and downloaded again the file but the error happens again.
I will thanks any idea or suggestion.
Cheers!

This is the usual Gatekeeper response to a non-signed app downloaded from the bet. The solution is described in the README file: run the Terminal command:

xattr -rc /path/to/soundloomE.app

The best and recommended approach is to run xattr on the whole cdpr8 directory inside the Disk image. This will process everything, including soundloomE.app.
