Locating YAML file

[4thSpace]

Hello,

Very excited about the promise of VLC Scheduler.
Our YAML file is located in the same directory as the application, but on launch we are getting this error:
"FileNotFoundError: Cannot find the configuration file vlcscheduler.yaml in any of these places: /private/var/folders/69/f3vs7lnx55500pbdz4lx3r5h0000gr/T/AppTranslocation/8F0E6273-61CA-47F7-9A2C-6529700223B7/d/VLC Scheduler.app/Contents/MacOS/../../..."

Any advice is appreciated.

OsX10.13/VLC 3.04

@4thSpace Apparently this is a new security feature in macOS, called "AppTranslocation", taking place.

Steps to solve the problem:

1. Open Terminal.app.
2. Copy the following command, but do NOT run it yet: sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine.
3. Make sure to add a white space after com.apple.quarantine.
4. Now drag VLC Scheduler.app onto the Terminal window. The path to VLC Scheduler.app will appear at the end of the command, right after com.apple.quarantine, for example: sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Users/bob/Desktop/VLC\ Scheduler.app
5. Press Enter to run the command.
