Installation on OSX (Apple Scilicon) - OS complains unknown developer

[_Chris]

On AppleSilicon machine the OS (Ventura) complains that the installer package is from an unknown developper and refuses to launch the installer.

You have to right-click on the installer package and choose "open", then it works as expected.

Privacy and Security is set to "App Store and identified developers".

And as mentioned in Christina's Warning, "this installer will replace LabVIEW 2023 Q1 with the Beta." I can confirm it does.

Thanks for reporting this issue! I've filed it as Bug 2370975.

I re downloaded the image to get the exact message: 

“LabVIEW 2023 Q3 Pro 64-bit” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.

This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information.

This has been true on almost all LV installers since macOS Catalina(?).  All downloaded disk images have a quarantine extended attribute and that is inherited by all executables on that disk image.

If NI signed/notarized the installer, it would function normally if you copied it to your local disk before running, but running an installer from a downloaded disk image is supposed to throw a warning in all cases.
