[zjslqshqz]

The arm version cannot be opened after installation, and the x86 version can be used normally. do not know why.

Versions

• MarkText version:v.0.17.1 marktext-arm64.dmg
• Operating system: 11.6.4

Dup of #2983.

From Big Sur 11, macOS prevents you from running untrusted program. Any executable must be codesigned. I believe this issue should affect a lot of programs on macOS, not only MarkText.

Same problem here on M1 Monterey 12.3.1

As mentioned, see #2983.

Just to also have this here: The binary isn't broken, it's just not signed. Run xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/MarkText.app to have macOS not put it in quarantine.

I have the same problem，my macOS is Big Sur 11.2.3 and M1.
But the marktext-x64.dmg is available to me！

[FlorianLoch]

Everyone will have the same problem because it's nothing about your machine, it's about the binary not being signed.

For how to circumvent this please see the issue referenced by me above. :)

With x64 Apple applies different rules, that's why this one is working for you.
