I am getting mixed answers from the internet. Some say this is malware others say its Mac OS update. I have ran two anti-malware tools and shows nothing. So thinking it is a Mac OS issue. Whenever I open certain files I get, "(__insert app__) will damage your computer. You should move it to the Trash."
MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.14
Hard to say when "insert app" is all we know. If the "app" is one from a a major developer like Apple, Adobe, Microsoft, Mozilla, etc, then it likely is a scam/adware message. If the app listed is questionable, or you got it from a unscrupulous download hosting site or a torrent, then that could be a legitimate Apple warning.
Is there a way to turn off "legitimate Apple warning." that are not warnings but don't allow you to open your own application?
And do you recommend adware screening software? I have used the top 3 and they show up with nothing, all clean.
There is no generic way to turn off those warnings, they are there because you are not doing it right. The requirements for software under the latest macOS Catalina have tightened considerably, and what you should do depends on exactly what App you are talking about.
What App are we talking about, please?
I can open locally. Just not launch within OS environment. So guessing I'm flagging something. Oh well. back to the code base. thought there might be some way to remove these restrictions. thanks, cheers.
How do I solve this error, ".... will damage your computer, You should move it to the Bin (Trash)"?
