As much as I detest windows, it allows the fact that it is my machine to do with what i will.Īnyway, hope this helps other frustrated users. If apple creates a "walled garden" system where I have to jailbreak it like an iphone, I will seriously think about going back to PC. But it IS my machine and if I want to install something I should be able to. If I override something and it messes my machine up, well then that's on me. I think it is a mistake to limit advanced users on what they can and cannot install.

#HOW TO DISABLE GATEKEEPER IN SIERRA MAC OSX#
Not sure why Gatekeeper thinks it needs to quarantine the app but at least I have a fix. Mac OSX Gatekeeper protects its users from installing untrusted software. The above command removes the quarantine status and allows the app to run. The issue appears to be that the Gatekeeper system is quarantining the app which stops the system from running it.
