[Solved] "Universal Media Server.app" is damaged and can't be opened...

After updating via brew to 10.7, I receive an error message whenever I try opening UMS on my mac (11.4, latest). I tried uninstalling and reinstalling via brew, and directly from fosshub.com. I also tried installing an older version that worked for me (10.5) from videohelp.com, but I receive the same message each time.

I think my next best option is to uninstall again, and then to completely remove any traces of UMS from my machine, but I can't track everything down. How do I go about that, or is there a better way altogether?


I have also run a script to allow me to set my Security preferences on my Mac to allow me to install apps from any sources: https://osxdaily.com/2016/09/27/allow-a ... atekeeper/

There's no point in reinstalling, this is something Apple does to prevent you form running programs that aren't signed with a key bought from them.

I've explained how to solve it in multiple threads previously, so please search and you should find.
